Fulbright Forum on Education, Innovation, Science, and Art
Fulbright Forum on Education, Innovation, Science, and Art provides a unique opportunity to hear about the research and projects that the current U.S. Fulbright scholars, teachers, and graduate students are doing in Finland. The sessions are held online on Zoom and they are open to the public.
Feel free to “stop by” for part of the event to listen and discuss the themes that match your area of interest and that also work with your schedule!
The times mentioned in the program are EEST (Helsinki, Finland); check your local time e.g. here: www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/meeting.html
