CALL FOR PROPOSALS FROM U-M FACULTY

 

This call for proposals is now closed.

The WCEE and CES-EUC invites U-M faculty applications for the S-U/U-M Faculty Awards Program. U-M applicants are invited to propose projects in any field of research or teaching with a faculty partner at S-U, and should submit with their application evidence of their correspondence with said faculty partner.

 

The award of up to $10,000 will support a short-term (2-4 week) research visit to Stockholm University, Stockholm, Sweden. The award will include airfare for the awardee, and a per diem towards their daily expenses, housing and health insurance coverage during the stay in Stockholm. Funding will be available for one U-M faculty.

 

Selection of awardees will be made through a competitive review of proposals by a WCEE-appointed advisory committee.
