Fulbright Specialist Honor

Dr. Volkan Ozbek, assistant professor of management at A&M–San Antonio, was selected for the prestigious Fulbright Specialist Program, an honor awarded by the U.S. Department of State. Ozbek spent two weeks at the University of Presov in Slovakia, collaborating with faculty on a project centered on organizational and managerial strategies for navigating global instability. 

During his visit, Ozbek served as a keynote speaker, presented scholarly work, and helped build long-term institutional partnerships. His research has appeared in leading journals, including “Academy of Management Review” and “American Business Review.” 

Only about 400 applicants nationwide are selected for the Fulbright Specialist roster each year. Ozbek’s appointment highlights his academic leadership and strengthens the University’s global engagement.
