U.S. Department of State names Morgan State University Fulbright HBCU institutional leader

Morgan State University is proud to be named as a Fulbright Historically Black College and University (HBCU) Institutional Leader for 2023, marking the fourth consecutive year that the University has received the designation. Each year, the U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs (ECA) recognizes the strong engagement of select HBCUs with the Fulbright Program, the U.S. government’s flagship international academic exchange program.

“It is truly an honor to receive the continued designation as a Fulbright HBCU Institutional Leader and be recognized for the great gains we have made in assisting our students to see the world while expanding their education,” said David K. Wilson, president of Morgan State University. “The Fulbright Program is an excellent vehicle for advancing study abroad and remains, to this day, one of the most distinguished and competitive awards granted in academia. Morgan is proud of the Fulbright awardees the University has produced both among our students and staff, and we look forward to building an even greater legacy as a provider of pathways to global opportunities.

This past summer a Morgan administrator and a member of the faculty received Fulbright awards to study in France and Australia, respectively.
