Call for proposals for Study Abroad and Study Away

The Office of Study Abroad is accepting proposals for study abroad and study away programs to run in Fall 2020, Spring 2021 and Summer 2021. The deadline has been extended to May 1.

Completed proposals include the proposal form, contact hours, budget, a syllabus for each course within the program and an itinerary. New and reoccurring programs need to be submitted in this format.

Study Abroad proposals are for credit-bearing and clinical experiences outside of the United States, while Study Away proposals are for credit-bearing experiences within the United States.

Conversations about these proposals should start in your department, as they will require signatures from your chair, appropriate committees and the dean’s office before coming to the study abroad committee, but the Study Abroad office is available to help with additional questions. If you are interested in submitting a proposal, please allow enough time to secure the signatures needed before the deadline.

Faculty are also encouraged to consider applying and teaching on one of the system-wide USG Goes Global programs (Paris, London, Waterford, St. Petersburg, Madrid, Scotland, Portugal, Germany, China or Vietnam). Complete the application here. 

These completed applications are due to the USG by May 1 for consideration to teach on a 2021 program. These applications also require signatures from your department chair, dean and the vice president for Instruction and Innovation. If you are interested in participating as teaching faculty, please review the Resources and FAQs.   

For more information about the proposal process or these programs, contact Maria Darley, director of Study Abroad. Also, if you are in need of more time due to various travel shutdowns due to COVID-19, just reach out directly to Darley and discuss your options.
