Stepping into the Future: Caleb Adams Awarded Prestigious Fulbright Future Scholarship

Congratulations to recent alum Caleb Adams on his remarkable achievement of being awarded the prestigious 2025 Fulbright Future Scholarship.

The Fulbright Program, established in 1946 by Senator J. William Fulbright, fosters collaboration between the U.S. and other nations through educational and cultural exchange. Each year, it supports outstanding students, scholars, and professionals studying, researching, or lecturing in the U.S. The Fulbright Future Scholarship funds projects that positively impact Australians’ health, livelihoods and prosperity by advancing applied science, supporting innovative business collaborations, and furthering the development of cutting-edge technologies.

With the support of the scholarship, Caleb plans to pursue a Master’s degree in Engineering, focusing on satellite, space and related technologies to mitigate and prevent the damaging effects of climate change. In the long term, he aims to develop technologies that strengthen global climate resilience and position Australia and the U.S. as international leaders in climate change mitigation and prevention.

As a Fogarty Scholar, Caleb spent three years at St Catherine’s College, completing a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering and Mathematics alongside a Diploma of Modern Languages in Italian at UWA. At the College, he engaged in the community by attending Faculty and Industry Dinners, Formal Halls, Inter-College sports, and other events that define College life. A highlight for Caleb was our 2022 Scholar’s Dinner, where he networked with academics, professionals and fellow scholars.

This extraordinary achievement is a testament to Caleb’s hard work and dedication. We at St Catherine’s College are immensely proud of him and eagerly anticipate the remarkable contributions he will make as he continues to excel in the United States and beyond.
