DII Information for Faculty + Staff

Philosophy of the DII Experiences Program

People’s beliefs, customs, experiences and environment create shared ways of perceiving and engaging in the world. Through dialogue and relationship building, students become more aware of and reflect on multiple perspectives. A meaningful engagement within the cultural environment inspires students to analyze the foundational assumptions that govern their thoughts and actions. This program is made possible by a Blugold Commitment Grant. Proposals may focus on issues, themes or locations with historical significance or current events and issues in the U.S. or on its borders.

The DII application cycle for 2020-21 is now open.

All interested candidates must thoroughly read the updated DII Request for Proposals to understand the program requirements and funding details, complete the Application Narrative document, and submit the application through BP Logix under Academic Affairs.

Eligibility

The DII program is open to current UW-Eau Claire faculty and academic staff with 0.50 FTE or greater appointments. New applicants are highly encouraged but must demonstrate sufficient knowledge of the culture and program content, and feasibility of the program. Repeat applicants must demonstrate past program achievements, such as evidence of student learning and meeting program goals and learning outcomes, and impact on the UW-Eau Claire community upon return. The receipt of funding one year does not guarantee additional funding in future years.
