Upcoming Deadlines for CIBER Grant Opportunities

Application deadlines are approaching for the Center for International Business and Education Research (CIBER’s) two university grant programs.  The deadline for the next round of Applied Funds support is September 4. The deadline for the next Global Research/Curriculum Development awards is October 1.
 
CIBER’s Applied Funds program provides grants of up to $2,000 to support travel, conference registration, and participation in faculty development programs.  CIBER’s Global Research/Curriculum Development grants usually range from $2,000-$7,500 and support international research or curriculum development activities such as developing an international study tour or enhancing a business language course. 

Requests for funding under either program must relate to one or more of CIBER’s programmatic goals, including internationalizing curriculum content; creating faculty development and enrichment programs; collaborating with foreign language departments to develop business language courses; funding research projects, events and publications on issues of strategic national interest; and creating and sponsoring business outreach and training programs to enhance the ability of U.S. business to compete internationally.
