Grants for Faculty: Course Development
The CES offers annual competition for faculty course development grants. Several grants, in the amount of $5000 each, will be awarded each year. We will consider proposals in the following two categories:
- Courses focused on contemporary European subjects. These are courses in which at least 75% of course time is related to Europe or European subjects broadly defined.
- Courses focused specifically on the European Union. These are courses in which at least 20% (preferably more) of the coursework is specifically and directly related to the European Union itself. For example, its history, evolution, institutions, politics, policies, current developments, and relations with the outside world.
