The Malaysian-American Commission on Educational Exchange (MACEE) was founded on 28 January 1963 through an agreement signed by both Malaysian and the United States governments to promote educational and cultural exchanges between the two countries, primarily through the prestigious program. Since its inception, more than 1,000 Malaysian Fulbrighters have been sent to the U.S. under the Fulbright Program. Additionally, more than 2,000 Fulbright U.S. grantees have participated in the program in Malaysia.
MACEE remains committed to its mission in “building bridges and transforming lives” through “Educational Diplomacy” by tirelessly improving educational and professional accessibility and opportunity to all eligible Malaysians and Americans.
Annually, grantees from both Malaysia and the United States engage in a rigorous application and interview process in an effort to be selected for the purposes of studying, teaching, and conducting research while enjoying the opportunity for cross-cultural experiences with academic leaders from around the world.
The Senator J. William Fulbright Program is an educational exchange program administered globally in 160 countries, 49 of which have binational commissions. (put as last para )
