The American Fulbright Commission is an organisation that provides scholarships for studies, research and lectureships to American citizens outside of the US as well as to non-Americans for within the US.

The German Fulbright Commission, with its head-quarters in Berlin, supports the exchange of German and American students, academics and professors. Since it was founded on July 18, 1952, the German-American Fulbright Program has supported more than 40.000 US-Americans and Germans.

The German programme represents the largest of the Fulbright exchange programmes. There have been prominent former scholarship holders, such as the winner of the Nobel Prize for Medicine Erwin Neher, news broadcaster and author Ulrich Wickert, former member of the Bundestag Peter Conradi, and, from the US, Garrick Utley, who went on to occupy leading positions at NBC and CNN.
