Cultivating leadership in agriculture and business through #Fulbright🌱🤝 Fulbrighters at Texas Tech University come from a wide range of disciplines, with a strong focus on agriculture. Learn how Fulbright provides a pathway for students and faculty to gain international agricultural experience: 🍷Dr. Natalia Velikova, professor of wine marketing and associate director of the Texas Wine Marketing Research Institute, used her Fulbright awards to the Republic of Georgia and Bulgaria to represent American leadership in global wine markets and elevate Texas as an emerging destination for wine tourism. 🎓 Dr. Conrad Lyford, professor of agricultural and applied economics, leveraged insights from his Fulbright experiences in Ethiopia and Ghana to develop Texas Tech’s Master of Agribusiness program and expand the university’s partnerships. 🌍 Through her Fulbright research in Australia, Dr. Courtney Meyers, professor of agricultural education and communications, analyzed how pressing agricultural challenges and innovative solutions are communicated internationally —insights she now integrates into graduate education and advising at Texas Tech. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4kml6qb 📸 1.
