Department of State IDEAS Program Closes March 11

$2.1 million in grants will increase and diversify education abroad for U.S. students.

The U.S. Department of State’s Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs is accepting proposals through March 11 for grantees that can build the institutional capacity of U.S. higher education to increase and/or diversify U.S. study abroad. 

Diversification can include expanding the institutions offering study abroad, increasing study abroad access for underrepresented students (first generation, racial and ethnic minorities, students with disabilities), or expanding study abroad to new destinations.

The award includes two components:

  1. Administration of small grants to support capacity building. The awardee will implement an open, merit-based competition to approximately 32 subawardees. 
  2. Implement capacity building initiatives for the U.S. higher education community that results in an increase and diversity of U.S. students abroad. 

Need help designing an efficient and clean subaward strategy? We bring experience in writing and running RFPs, making awards, and contracting. Get in touch below.
