The Canadian Government provides support for teaching, research, conferences and program activities that further the knowledge and understanding of Canada in the United States. Of particular interest are projects that focus on the diverse aspects of Canada-U.S. border issues, security cooperation, environmental and natural resources issues, and cultural relations. In addition, projects that examine Canadian politics, economics, culture, and society as well as Canadas role in international affairs are welcome.
Deadlines vary by program.
Opportunities for faculty to visit, teach or undertake research in other countries are available during breaks, or while participating in leaves of absence. First, it is suggested that a faculty member who is interested in an international experience identify the region or country that he or she would like to go to. Next the faculty member would contact the chair of the International Education Committee to find out if there are existing exchanges or contacts in the selected area. On a voluntary basis, members of the sub-committee will work with the faculty to develop proposals, as needed. A partial listing appears in the bulletins from Continuing Education.
