The Center for International Education (CIE), the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs (ORSP) and the Center for Service-Learning (CS-L) received multi-year funding (2011-2014) via the Blugold Commitment to support the Student-Faculty International Fellows Program for Research, Service, and Creative Activity.
The International Fellows program capitalizes on the strength and success of high impact academic experiences and is dedicated to supporting international student-faculty collaborative research/creative activity and research service-learning (i.e. field research conducted in conjunction with a service-learning experience). This program aims to achieve the following objectives:
1. To actualize the Centennial Plan’s commitment to accelerate global learning,
2. To support the Centennial Plan’s commitment to transformational learning, and
3. To fulfill an unmet student and faculty need for financial support to conduct international research and creative activities.
In addition, one hope is that some funded projects might grow into longer-term, self-sustaining international relationships or study abroad programs.
We are currently inviting applications for projects to be carried out during the summer and winterim sessions within the following timeframe: July 1, 2013 to June 15, 2014.
Applications are due to the Center of International Education by June 17, 2013. A proposal may be submitted by any member of the collaborating team. Please read the International Fellows Guidelines prior to submitting your proposal.
Please note that funds for projects running July 1, 2013 through June 15, 2014 cannot be released until July 1, 2013.
