Trends, Challenges and New Perspectives in Transatlantic Higher Education – The Seminar for US Administrators in International Education and Fulbright Workshop for US & German Administrators 2025

The seminar concluded in Berlin with a joint workshop with alumni of our German Administrators seminars. This peer-to-peer exchange offered a perfect platform to discuss the latest trends in international higher education on both sides of the Atlantic. Together, US and German participants shared best practices, explored new ideas for cooperation, and built connections that promise to last beyond the workshop.

The Seminar for US Administrators in International Education reaffirmed Fulbright Germany’s commitment to fostering transatlantic exchange and building sustainable professional networks between German and US institutions.
Applications for the 2026 Seminar for US Administrators in International Education are now open through February 2, 2026. Information and application instructions are available on the Institute of International Education (IIE) Fulbright Scholar Program website.
Beyond our exciting program, we asked our US admins to share their thoughts on our central theme for 2026: Independence. Here’s a glimpse into the inspiring words they found. Check out the video below.
