International programs office accepting International Incentive Grant proposals
The international programs offices is accepting International Incentive Grant proposals. The total award amount for this round of grant proposals is $25,000.
The primary purpose of the International Incentive Grant program is to promote the internationalization of Kansas State University. Proposals should fall into one or more of the following broad categories:
- Incorporation of global perspectives or components into curriculum or campus programs, including bringing international visitors or lectures to K-State
- Development of global learning opportunities, including study abroad courses or internship programs with companies or partner universities overseas, and
- International research or teaching, including organizing international workshops and conferences and planning visits to initiate collaborative research or teaching.
Grant applications for activities that are likely to have a significant impact on international education at Kansas State University will be favorably evaluated. The majority of individual grants will fall into the range of $1,000 to $3,000; joint proposals may have a higher upper limit.
Due to the breadth of programming that this International Incentive Grant program encompasses, we encourage all Kansas State University faculty members to consider submitting a proposal. Individual and joint grant proposals will be considered. Award Application deadline is 5 p.m. Feb. 7. Awardees will be notified no later than Feb. 20.
