The Carlson School is proud to announce that two graduating seniors and a recent alum have been offered Fulbright awards to study or conduct research projects abroad next year.

The Fulbright U.S. Student Program supports one year of study, research, creative work, or English teaching in one of approximately 130 foreign countries. During their grants, Fulbrighters will meet, work, live with and learn from the people of the host country. The program facilitates cultural exchange through direct interaction on an individual basis in the classroom, field, home, and in routine tasks. 

Emma Mulhern, ‘21 BSB, will go to Finland to earn a master’s degree in supply management. Emma previously studied in Finland as a Rotary Scholar in high school and has completed a Finnish minor at the University of Minnesota. Mattea Rice, ‘21 BSB, will undertake a project in Brazil to develop and promote sustainable agriculture practices. Mattea had her semester of study abroad in Brazil interrupted by the pandemic last spring. Additionally, alumna Mahima Gupta, a ‘20 BSB graduate with majors in Marketing and Political Science, will spend next year in India completing a research project on the educational experience of Muslim girls in the Punjab.
