International Exchange Scholar Program

Initially established in 2011 through the ACS International Relations Committee, the International Exchange Scholar Program is now made possible by the generosity of the RAS-ACS. This traveling scholarship provides selected ACS Resident members and Associate Fellows with stipend and airfare for the purpose of scholarship abroad and is reciprocated with exchange scholars from participating host countries. The program is a great opportunity to foster and promote international relations and friendship.
