00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:07,440
Hey. A greeting to all our
listeners of or Rosario Radio I am Karen

2
00:00:07,599 --> 00:00:12,199
Garcia and today at Podcast Uere,
we present full Bright scholarships sowing opportunities.

3
00:00:14,439 --> 00:00:18,559
We have a very special guest,
Ana María Carvajal, who will tell us

4
00:00:18,640 --> 00:00:22,079
what these scholarships are and for those
who do not know full Bright Colombia.

5
00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:28,120
It is the Commission for Educational Exchange
between the United States and Colombia that supports

6
00:00:28,199 --> 00:00:34,399
students who claim to expand their master' s and doctorate skills. We will

7
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:39,159
be hearing more details with Ana María, educational advisor at the full Bray Colombia

8
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,479
Commission. Hello Maria, how are
you, Hello Karen, how about Good

9
00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:48,039
morning, Ana María, before I
would like to thank you for accepting this

10
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:54,479
space in which we have many doubts
in front of these full Bright scholarships in

11
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,479
the United States then expand the information
of what is this organization Full Brat Colombia.

12
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:02,039
Or of course they are, thank
you so much for this space.

13
00:01:02,799 --> 00:01:06,040
I start by telling you a little
bit that it' s full Bright.

14
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:11,760
Full Brat is a program that depends
on the United States Department of State and

15
00:01:11,879 --> 00:01:17,719
is today the main academic exchange program
between the United States and the rest of

16
00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:21,400
the world. It is a program
that emerges after the Second World War with

17
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:29,680
the purpose of strengthening academic, educational
scientists links between the United States and other

18
00:01:29,719 --> 00:01:34,120
countries. Today full Bright has a
presence in more than one hundred and sixty

19
00:01:34,239 --> 00:01:38,359
countries around the world. In Colombia
it exists more than sixty- seven years

20
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:45,840
ago and every year the full Braak
program in Colombia opens a call for postgraduate

21
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:51,319
scholarships. Let' s just say
we' re being asked what Fullbak does,

22
00:01:51,599 --> 00:01:53,920
and the answer is the Full Bate
program. What it does is offer

23
00:01:55,040 --> 00:02:02,079
scholarships that try to strengthen the links
that exist between the academic and scientific community

24
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,240
of the United States and Colombia.
How this initiative is born and support people

25
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:12,840
to study a graduate degree in the
United States. Yes, well, let

26
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:17,520
' s say that the Folbrate program
tries to do this all over the world

27
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:25,199
and it' s very interesting because
just being able to be part of the

28
00:02:25,199 --> 00:02:31,159
full community means meeting people from all
over the world who gather in the United

29
00:02:31,199 --> 00:02:37,520
States to carry out either graduate studies
or even teaching research stays. But post

30
00:02:38,159 --> 00:02:44,280
- graduate scholarships specifically. What they
are looking for is that professionals from all

31
00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:52,120
regions of Colombia, from all the
populations that make up our country, have

32
00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:58,360
the opportunity to travel to the United
States and advance there their master' s

33
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:02,199
and doctoral studies in the well-
known universities, in the accredited universities.

34
00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:07,400
And let' s say that the
process that is done through our program is

35
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:15,159
that full Blouse launches an annual call
and in that period when the call is

36
00:03:15,159 --> 00:03:20,759
open, is that we receive the
applications of the people interested in presenting themselves,

37
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,039
to win the BECA and thus start
their graduate studies in the United States.

38
00:03:27,319 --> 00:03:31,000
Perfect ana. We understand that full
Bright betas have a portfolio for their

39
00:03:31,039 --> 00:03:38,159
application, which are BECCA credit forgivable
full Bright. My science grants credit for

40
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:45,039
full Bright for communities of African descent
and G William full Bright betas. You

41
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:49,280
could expand each of these categories.
Of course I do. That' s

42
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,240
a question you often ask us if
there' s a full Brat BECA and

43
00:03:53,439 --> 00:03:55,879
the answers are no full Baide scholarship. There are several Fulgray scholarship programs,

44
00:03:55,960 --> 00:04:03,680
each with different quotas. So let' s start with the Bennis Forgivable Science

45
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:08,919
Grant, which is the biggest program
we' re offering this year, with

46
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:15,839
forty places for people interested in advancing
doctoral studies at universities in the United States

47
00:04:15,920 --> 00:04:23,279
for all people who either have a
master' s degree or have two years

48
00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,279
of research. Let' s say
they don' t have a master'

49
00:04:27,319 --> 00:04:28,240
s degree, but they can certify
they have two years of research. From

50
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:34,639
research experience, these people could apply
and apply for this scholarship that will allow

51
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:40,839
them to do their doctoral studies at
universities in the United States. The other

52
00:04:41,399 --> 00:04:47,319
is the condon talk credit grant for
communities of African descent, and that is

53
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:51,519
a program that is being offered to
all people in Colombia who belong to the

54
00:04:51,519 --> 00:05:00,000
Community, to the Black Nart,
Pro- Colombian, Raisal and Palenqueras communities.

55
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,879
These people can apply for this program
and it is to do aberto master

56
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:10,120
' s studies in all areas of
knowledge. The last is the J William

57
00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:15,199
Fullbreak scholarship, which is a scholarship
being offered this year. It is also

58
00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:20,040
open to all areas of knowledge.
It is being offered to all people,

59
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:26,000
regardless of whether they belong to ethnic
or non- ethnic comforts, or minority

60
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,800
or not. For all people in
the country who are willing to do their

61
00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:34,600
master' s degree at the university
in the United States, they can apply

62
00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:38,199
for the Jar William Full Brad scholarship. Those are the three programs we are

63
00:05:38,319 --> 00:05:42,480
offering for this year. What has
been the scope of Full Bright scholarships,

64
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:46,879
how many people have benefited and in
what areas of knowledge. That' s

65
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:54,199
a big question. The programme has
benefited more than five hundred people since its

66
00:05:55,160 --> 00:06:00,480
existence in Colombia. The vast majority
of these people have been graduate students,

67
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:08,720
that is, Colombians and Colombians who
travel to the United States to do their

68
00:06:08,759 --> 00:06:14,160
master' s degrees or doctorates.
Scholarships have traditionally been open to all areas

69
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,519
of knowledge. Let' s say
with a few exceptions. There are times

70
00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:25,519
there are scholarships specifically for artists,
or there are scholarships specifically for some work,

71
00:06:25,879 --> 00:06:29,839
on some particular subject, and that
will depend on the characteristics of the

72
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:33,720
scholarship that opens in a portfolio of
a given year. But in general,

73
00:06:34,199 --> 00:06:41,480
the scholarships have covered all areas of
knowledge and yes, that I can say,

74
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:46,079
five four hundred people have been beneficiaries
of the Fullrate scholarships in Colombia.

75
00:06:46,639 --> 00:06:49,240
Well, Ana Maria, and for
all those people and students who are listening

76
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:55,879
to us and who are interested in
participating in how the scholarship application is made,

77
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:01,600
then the most important thing is that
they enter our website, which is

78
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:13,839
full Bright EUC full Baks writes with
just one l fulbright. They Google us

79
00:07:13,879 --> 00:07:19,360
as fullver. Colombia will give you
the result of our website. On our

80
00:07:19,439 --> 00:07:25,959
website they must enter a tab called
scholarships and there they will go for each

81
00:07:26,079 --> 00:07:30,519
of the options until they manage to
find the menu with the three scholarships that

82
00:07:30,319 --> 00:07:33,879
we talked about a while ago,
which are the portfolio of bejas for this

83
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:42,240
year. There you will find on
the website a document that is vital,

84
00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:47,600
central to the application, which is
called the terms of reference. And that

85
00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:54,600
document is vital because there you will
find all the specific requirements, the step

86
00:07:54,639 --> 00:07:59,600
by step of how to apply each
of the detailed benefits offered by begas,

87
00:07:59,959 --> 00:08:05,000
etc. Then it is very important
if you are interested and interested in applying

88
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:09,560
to the call that you read that
document of the terms of reference, where

89
00:08:09,600 --> 00:08:15,879
you will be able to find with
all the details, all the minuteness of

90
00:08:15,959 --> 00:08:18,120
what you need to do in order
to be able to submit to the call.

91
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,120
And what has been the impact of
full Bright scholarships in Colombia? Yes,

92
00:08:22,199 --> 00:08:28,480
it is a subject on which we
have been working in recent years and

93
00:08:28,639 --> 00:08:33,440
which we want to collect more and
more information. But the fundamental purpose of

94
00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:43,399
the full Bright program has been to
be able to identify leaders people who are

95
00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:48,759
highly committed to the community and society, people who want to contribute in some

96
00:08:48,919 --> 00:08:54,039
way to trying to solve some of
the many problems we have in our country.

97
00:08:54,879 --> 00:09:00,000
And in that sense, the scholarships
have been offered just for the poor

98
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:05,720
people who have shown a higher commitment
to society, a greater attempt to positively

99
00:09:05,960 --> 00:09:18,519
impact the country. Then we have
full brighers who have done very impressive things

100
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,399
the truth and very positive for the
country. I believe that one of the

101
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:28,000
great benefits of applying to FullBread grants
is precisely that of being able to connect

102
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,200
with a community of people who have
been working hard, from the education sector,

103
00:09:33,399 --> 00:09:39,000
from the public sector, from the
private sector, from different fields,

104
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:46,960
have been working hard to try to
contribute to society. Then we hope to

105
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:52,320
continue doing this for many years.
We hope that our full briders of the

106
00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:58,759
past, present and future will be
people who continue to work hard to make

107
00:09:58,799 --> 00:10:05,120
the world a little better. Endiza
Andana Maria have social networks for one to

108
00:10:05,159 --> 00:10:11,320
learn about the new full Bright scholarships. Of course I do. They find

109
00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:16,960
us on all social networks, like
Fullbreak Colombia. They find us on Facebook,

110
00:10:16,399 --> 00:10:20,840
on Instagram, on linktein on what
was once called Twitter and now it

111
00:10:20,919 --> 00:10:26,679
' s called ex On the very
important YouTube channel they' re going to

112
00:10:26,759 --> 00:10:31,759
find a lot of tutorial videos that
are going to be very useful to put

113
00:10:31,759 --> 00:10:33,639
together their app. Videos on how
to make a living sheet in English,

114
00:10:33,720 --> 00:10:37,679
is how to write some essays that
we ask for, which are part of

115
00:10:37,720 --> 00:10:43,000
the requirements for scholarship calls, that
I can prepare the English exam that they

116
00:10:43,039 --> 00:10:48,519
ask for for the Fulbray scholarship call. So it' s very important that
