The Fulbright Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program enables Indian postgraduates to teach Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, or Urdu at U.S. universities while pursuing professional development. Selected candidates spend nine months on a non-degree grant assisting language courses, enhancing cross-cultural exchange between India and the United States. This program is open to early-career educators committed to teaching Indian languages abroad.

Indian nationals aged 21–29 years who hold or are pursuing a master’s degree in English or a related field are eligible. Applicants must currently teach English at the college level or be enrolled in a teacher-training program. Preference is given to candidates with demonstrated teaching experience or language proficiency in Bengali, Gujarati, Hindi, or Urdu.

Submit an application through the official portal as listed on the program’s page. Include academic transcripts, proof of language proficiency if applicable, letters of recommendation, and a statement of purpose. Shortlisted candidates may be invited for an interview before final selection.
