Brazil-U.S. Exchange Program

The Sociedade Brasileira de Física (SBF) and the American Physical Society (APS) are pleased to sponsor an exchange program for physics graduate students and professors in the U.S. and Brazil.

Brazil-U.S. Professorship/Lectureship Program

The Brazil-U.S. Professorship/Lectureship Program funds physicists in Brazil and the United States wishing to visit overseas to teach a short course or deliver a lecture series in the other country.  The professorship grants are for up to USD $4,000.

Brazil-U.S. Physics Student Visitation Program

Through the Brazil-U.S. Physics Student Visitation Program, graduate students in the U.S. and Brazil can apply for funds to travel to the other country in order to pursue a breadth of opportunities in physics.  Such opportunities might include: 

1. Attending a short-course or summer institute;
2. Visiting with a professor in his/her field of study;
3. Working temporarily in a laboratory; or,
4. Other opportunity that the student and professor believe is worthy of travel support. 
   

Grants for students are for up to USD $3,000.
