Fulbright Administrators

A Fulbright Administrator is a designated TTU employee.  These persons are involved with incoming Fulbright students, scholars, and their hosting departments (individuals outside the US that have been awarded Fulbright scholarships to come to the US). Fulbright maintains a list of these Fulbright Administrators at TTU.

For incoming Fulbright students the Fulbright Administrator at TTU is: 

  • Ximena.Fuentes, Sponsored Students Counselor, International Sponsored Student Programs

For incoming Fulbright Scholars (researchers and faculty), the Fulbright Administrator at TTU is:

  • Richard Porter, Ed.D., Director of International Student and Scholar Services

When faculty at TTU are approached by a scholar that has been awarded a Fulbright, Richard is the point of contact for that TTU faculty member.

Please note: The Fulbright agency will issue the immigration document for the scholar and provide an orientation prior to their arrival at TTU to participate in their academic program.
