Funding in millions
AAU urges Congress to provide at least $106 million for Title VI International Education programs in FY21
The Department of Education’s Title VI (domestic) and Fulbright-Hays (overseas) programs are the federal government’s most comprehensive programs for developing national capacity in international and foreign language education. These programs support instruction in less-commonly taught languages—particularly from regions of national strategic importance—and research on cultural issues important to economic and national security. These programs educate individuals whose abilities help ensure the successful international engagement of the U.S. education, government, and business sectors.
