Current Call for Proposals

One of the goals of the UCCS Global Intercultural Research Center (GLINT) is to facilitate innovative global intercultural scholarship and by serving as an incubator for newly emerging themes related to global intercultural issues. To enable this, we will award a small number of internal seed grants as investments to encourage and promote high quality research and external project funding development related to global intercultural research. Depending on the number and quality of submissions, zero to three awards will be granted. These awards will be made on a competitive basis and are open to GLINT affiliates. The objectives of this investment program are, i) to stimulate creative thinking and innovative approaches, ii) promote research excellence, encourage interdisciplinarity, and iii) assist faculty members in becoming competitive when seeking funding from sources external to UCCS. The GLINT advisory board, composed of faculty representatives from disciplines across campus, will evaluate proposals submitted under this funding program. The committee will select awardees in accordance with the eligibility, conditions, and evaluation criteria specified below. Awards will be announced in May 2020. Funds will be made available to awardees beginning July 1, 2020.
