Please note: The Faculty International Development Grant program is on hold until further notice.
The Education Abroad Office awards competitive grants for internationalizing faculty engagement and program development from funds provided by the Senior Vice Provost for Academic Affairs. Awards will take the form of expense reimbursements, contingent upon the receipt by the Education Abroad Office of a report on the funded activities. For sample reports, visit Faculty Travel Reports. Grant money must be used during the time period of the award. Successful applicants will articulate their goals clearly, concisely, and comprehensively for a reader outside their field.
