The Canadian-American Studies Committee at UB invites proposals for projects and activities that are designed to encourage and promote increased awareness and understanding at UB of Canada and of relations between Canada and the United States. These grants are made possible with the assistance of the Government of Canada, the Canadian Studies Grant Program of the Canadian Embassy in Washington, DC, and by the College of Arts & Sciences, University at Buffalo.
Application deadline is 12:00 Noon, Monday, March 19, 2012
Proposals are welcome from full-time UB faculty and UB graduate students that have faculty sponsorship for the proposed project or activity. Because of the relatively small amount of funding available, priority will be given to requests that do not exceed $1000. Grants are provided to help defray direct costs only. Generally, support is limited to the following: research-related activities, travel costs for speakers or artists, support for conferences and/or workshops, student mobility, linkages and research collaboration with Canadian universities. Grant monies must be expended prior to June 30, 2013.
The Committee encourages individuals to submit proposals for projects that offer promise for eventually securing external funding, or that establish and strengthen collaborative ties with colleagues in Canada. Funds from this program may be used to pilot or plan larger projects, particularly those targeting the Canadian Embassy Grant Program.
