These grants, funded by the U.S. Department of Education, are awarded to institutions whose faculty seek support to conduct research in all countries and world regions except Western Europe. Projects supported include the study of culture, geography, history, economy, politics, international relationships, and languages. The program is designed to contribute to faculty development in foreign language and area studies knowledge, especially non-Western. Approximately 25-30 awards are made annually. Awards made to IU are administered by the Office of International Programs.
Deadlines: The availability of awards is usually announced in early September, and complete applications are due in mid to late October.
