Description
The Office of Global Educational Programs in the Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs, U.S. Department of State, is pleased to announce an open competition for proposals to advance the Bureau's objective of mutual understanding between the people of the United States and other countries, through building and expanding the institutional capacity of accredited U.S. higher education institutions (HEIs) to increase and/or diversify U.S. student mobility abroad through the administration of the FY2018 Capacity Building Program for U.S. Study Abroad. The FY2018 Capacity Building Program aims to achieve this goal through two main components: 1) the administration of up to two national open competitions to provide small grants to accredited U.S. HEIs to create, expand, and/or diversify their U.S. study abroad programs and 2) the implementation of workshops and other initiatives to build broader capacity within the U.S. study abroad community. ECA reserves the right to reduce, revise, or increase the number of competitions and the number of capacity building initiatives in accordance with the needs of the program and the availability of funds. This competition is a component of the Department's engagement in expanding and diversifying U.S. study abroad through its U.S. Study Abroad Branch (ECA/A/S/Q).
