International Development Fund

Update- We are sorry to announce that due to budgetary constraints, the International Development Fund for Fall 2008 will not be issued. Further information about the International Development Fund for Spring/Summer 2009 will be posted at a later date. Thank you for your understanding.

Each semester the Office of International Affairs holds a competition, open to all UIC faculty, for international projects benefiting the campus. This year awards of $700 each are available: 4 awards were given for Spring/Summer 2008 and 3 will be given for Fall 2008.

These awards are intended to encourage international development at UIC by supporting faculty and staff in activity that will result in an internationally enriched academic environment, international research opportunities, and the enhancement of international programs.

The next deadline for this semiannual competition is October 17, 2008. The application and award guidelines for the competition may be viewed by clicking the link below. For additional information, please contact Kristin Kutella with the Office of International Affairs at kkutella@uic.edu.
