On September 25 at his residence in Warsaw, Deputy Chief of Mission Bix Aliu hosted 27 newly arrived Fulbright Scholars from the United States who will spend the next academic year in different cities across Poland. In total, 43 of these U.S. scholars will teach and conduct research at Polish universities throughout the complete 2019-20 academic year. The 27 scholars who have just arrived in Poland will be based at universities in Warszawa, Kraków, Gdańsk, Poznań, Bydgoszcz, Lublin, Wrocław, Białystok, Łomża, Łódź, Opole, Chełm, Toruń and Rzeszów. They will conduct research and scientific programs in such fields as art, bioengineering, public health, literature, music and many other areas.
