[Chandler, AZ, September 3, 2024] – The University of Arizona Global Campus (UAGC) distinguished faculty member, Diane Hamilton, at the Forbes School of Business and Technology®, has been honored with a Fulbright Specialist Program award. This grant will enable Hamilton to embark on a transformative project at the Luxembourg School of Business, fostering international collaboration in the field of Business Administration.

Hamilton’s project aims to facilitate the exchange of knowledge and the establishment of enduring partnerships that will benefit participants, institutions, and communities both in the United States and Luxembourg. Her work will involve a series of educational and training activities that underscore the importance of global cooperation in business education.

Each year, the Fulbright Specialist Program selects over 400 U.S. citizens who demonstrate exceptional academic and professional accomplishments, as well as leadership in their respective fields, to share their expertise with host institutions abroad.

The Fulbright Program, the U.S. government's flagship international educational exchange initiative, has been fostering connections between the United States and other nations since its inception in 1946.
