About the Fulbright Award
The Fulbright Program, sponsored by the U.S. Department of State with additional support provided by participating governments and international host institutions, is our country’s largest international exchange program. It offers opportunities for students, scholars, and professionals to undertake advanced research, teaching, and learning opportunities in locations around the world. As established by Congress in 1946, the goal of the program is to “increase mutual understanding between people of the United States and the people of other countries.”
The international scope of these awards make OHIO’s Fulbright scholars our adventurers—and our ambassadors—as they apply the academic skills they’ve honed at Ohio University in continuing their studies around the world.

Bailey Miles
A senior biology and Spanish major from Athens, Ohio, Bailey will use his Fulbright award to participate in health research in Spain. He hopes to enhance his research and language skills so that he will be better equipped to treat patients, especially Spanish-speakers, both in the U.S. and abroad. Eventually, he would like to become a physician and contribute to translational research with clinical applications. In addition to his studies, Bailey has volunteered at Appalachian Behavioral Healthcare and participated in Ohio University’s cycling club and student senate.
“A Fulbright in Spain will play an important role in my career development by providing research training along with the opportunity to improve my Spanish,” he notes.
“Bailey is one of the best students in the HTC biological sciences program. He works incredibly hard and thoroughly on everything, always going the extra mile. He welcomes suggestions and advice from people around him and he is willing to share his time with other students.”
