The '''United States-India Educational Foundation''' ('''USIEF''') (formerly known as the '''United States Educational Foundation in India''') is an international foundation dedicated to [[higher education]] in India and the United States. Its primary focal points include administering the [[Fulbright Program]] to Indian and American students, faculty and professionals; encouraging international engagement of Fulbright scholars; advising students in India of higher education opportunities in the United States; and linking higher education institutions in the US and India. In addition to administering the Fulbright-Nehru programs in India, the Foundation also administers several Fulbright grants, including the Hubert H. Humphrey Fellowships; New Century Scholars Program, Teacher Exchange Program; International Fulbright Science and Technology Award; and the Foreign Language Teaching Assistant Program.<br />
<br />
Headquartered in [[New Delhi]], India, the Foundation was forged in 1950 as the "United States Educational Foundation in India" (USEFI) as the result of a 38-year agreement between the U.S. and India. In 2008, another agreement was signed which gave India equal partnership and modified the Foundation's name. Since May 2008, its [[executive director]] has been Adam J Grotsky. In February 2010, the Foundation celebrated its 60th Founding Day.<ref>{{cite web | url = http://newdelhi.usembassy.gov/pr020210b.html | title = Ambassador’s Remarks USIEF 60th Foundation Day February 2, 2010 | access-date = 5 November 2010 | publisher = Embassy of the United States, New Delhi India}}</ref><br />
