The competitive cycle for the 2009-10 NCAGE $1000 Mini-Grants Program has commenced. NCAGE will make available a number of grants of up to $1000[1] to support NCAGE annual activities, for example a unique multi-disciplinary course, program or a regional workshop, to be implemented during 2009-10.  

Eligibility. 

Only faculty and staff who are NCAGE members are eligible to apply. Participants are limited to one proposal per NCAGE annual funding cycle.

Funded proposals will focus on a topic or theme of relevance to NCAGE in global studies or internationalization of the curriculum - a theme that will benefit from interdisciplinary examination. The selected proposal will also involve active participation of or co-sponsorship by two or more NCAGE institutions, including a mix of public and private institutions.  

NCAGE Mini Grant proposals include an abstract describing the topic and purpose of the program, course or conference, a tentative schedule of activities, including names and affiliation of individuals who would be invited to lecture or make presentations, and a tentative budget. The proposal should also indicate at least two NCAGE institutions that will participate and the contributions that each campus will make toward the program or conference. One campus will be designated as the lead institution and the NCAGE Steering Committee representative from that campus must submit the proposal.

An ad hoc committee of the NCAGE Steering Committee will review proposals and select the winning mini grant proposals.
