Fulbright Austria US Teaching Assistantship (USTA)

Fulbright Austria (Austrian-American Educational Commission), funded by the Austrian Federal Ministry of Education

Pays you

€1,631–€2,012/mo

Approximately EUR 2,012 gross per month, roughly EUR 1,631 net after Austrian tax and social insurance. Health and accident coverage through BVAEB is mandatory and included. Fulbright Austria states plainly that the monthly salary is the only money you receive in connection with the job - the low figure here is net, the high figure is gross, not a range of offers.

Places American college graduates as English teaching assistants in Austrian secondary schools for one school year, employed and paid by the Austrian Ministry of Education. Despite the Fulbright branding it is administered separately from the Fulbright US Student Program and has its own application and deadline.
