Loyola professor named Fulbright Distinguished Scholar
Tuugi Chuluun, Ph.D., professor of finance at Loyola University Maryland’s Sellinger School of Business and Management, was named a Fulbright Distinguished Scholar. Through the Fulbright program, Chuluun will teach and conduct research at Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic, in the spring of 2025.
“For an educator, particularly in fields like finance with a strong global focus, international experience holds immense value,” Chuluun said. “My Fulbright project aims to enrich my research in corporate finance and international finance while expanding my international teaching expertise. Furthermore, it will foster international collaboration and strengthen research and teaching capabilities for both my host and home institutions. I am truly delighted and honored to have this opportunity.”
Chuluun is a Chartered Financial Analyst charterholder. She co-authored “International Financial Management,” McGraw-Hill’s international finance textbook used at colleges and universities worldwide, including in the Czech Republic. Chuluun has written on a wide range of topics from global networks to exchange rate behavior.
In 2023, Chuluun received the Bowe Fellowship with the World Trade Center Institute in Baltimore and participated in the institute’s Emerging and Developing Global Executives (EDGE) program.
“I have been deeply honored to know and to work with Dr. Chuluun,” said Mary Ann Scully, MBA ’79, dean of Loyola’s Sellinger School. “She is well respected globally for her expertise, her commitment to her discipline, and her ability to leverage her own scholarship in service to educating her students. The Fulbright Scholarship distinction is sought by many but rewarded to very few. We are both proud of and grateful for Dr. Chuluun.”
The Fulbright Scholar Program, the U.S. government’s program for international educational and cultural exchange, awards more than 1,700 fellowships every year. The fellowships enable 800 U.S. academics and professionals to go abroad and 900 visiting scholars to come to the United States.
