(Mahwah) – Stephanie Olberg, an exchange student from Germany taking international business courses at Ramapo College of New Jersey, has been awarded a Fulbright Scholarship by Germany’s Fulbright Kommission in partnership with the Fulbright Scholar Program in the United States.

Olberg is enrolled at the University of Dresden in Germany. Following the fall semester at Ramapo College, she will return to the university to complete her degree. She plans to pursue a master’s degree in the United States. Her career interests are international business and international management.

The Fulbright Program, the U.S. government’s flagship program in international educational exchange, was proposed to the U.S. Congress in 1945 by then freshman Senator J. William Fulbright of Arkansas. Fulbright grants are made to U.S. citizens and nationals of other countries for a variety of educational activities, primarily university lecturing, advanced research, graduate study and teaching in elementary and secondary schools. Since the program’s inception, more than 250,000 participants –chosen for their leadership potential– have had the opportunity to observe each other’s political, economic and cultural institutions.

Olberg is living on campus at Ramapo College during her semester as an exchange student. She resides in Dessau, Germany.
