IGSA Individual Faculty Grants
IGSA
offers individual Faculty and Administrator grants for up to
$1000 to support the University of Cincinnati's Globalization
initiative. All full-time UC faculty, administrators, and
part-time faculty with recurring appointments are eligible to
apply. Because of reduced funding this year, projects
typically involve accompanying students on a trip abroad. In
all cases, faculty applications must show how the grant will
internationalize curriculum at the University of
Cincinnati.
Beginning in Spring, 2003, all grant applications must
be submitted on-line.

Institutional Collaboration Agreements (ICA)
Institutional Collaboration Agreements allow academic institutions
to craft formal agreements to work together in the areas of student and faculty exchanges,
and research. This document outlines the two-step process in setting up a collaboration agreement
and implementing it at the program or departmental level. Please note that we now require an
Activity Agreement to accompany the Collaboration Agreement. We are happy to work with you to
devise an agreement that will show measurable success and upon which we can continue to build
in the future. Please contact Susan Bacon or call 556-4402 to discuss.
