  • International Research & Creative Activity Travel Reimbursement

Each year, the President provides an allocation of funds to defray expenses for tenured/tenure track faculty (up to $1,000) who have been invited to present at, or participate in, significant international conferences, meetings, and other related research and professional activities outside of the United States. The Spring 2013 application is for travel taken between January 1, 2013 and June 30, 2013. This grant is usually used to reimburse travel that has already occurred rather than to provide initial funding. A completed travel authorization showing all required approval signatures (traveler, chair, dean, vice president, and president) received prior to the travel departure date must be submitted with the proposal. A completed travel request form showing all required approval signatures (traveler, chair, dean, vice president, and president) received prior to the travel departure date must be submitted with the proposal.
