Faculty Course Development & Enhancement

The John Sloan Dickey Center for International Understanding is committed to promoting the study of the world at Dartmouth. Course Enhancement and Development funding helps faculty provide students with courses that expose them to different cultural perspectives and voices. 

Funds are available for developing new courses or improving existing ones. We support guest lectures, films or the acquisition of materials to enhance courses. 

Proposals are evaluated on the degree to which Center support enhances the international dimension of existing courses, or to which a new course adds to the international course offerings at Dartmouth.  We will also prioritize requests that align with the Dickey Center’s five main “pillars” of focus: security, environment, gender, global health, and human development.

Funding applications must be received at least one term prior to intended activity. For 2019-20, due dates are:

• February 8, 2019 for 2019 Spring Term Activities (Apr-Jun 2019)
• May 10, 2019 for 2019 Summer Term Activities (Jul-Sep 2019)
• August 18, 2019 for 2019 Fall Term Activities (Oct-Dec 2019)
• November 17, 2019 for 2020 Winter Term Activities (Jan-Mar 2020)
