Grants
Michigan State University faculty and doctoral students are invited to
apply for MSU-CIBER grants to support professional development,
research, and curricular activities that are of importance to global
competitiveness of U.S. firms. All grant requests that involve
international travel must be submitted no later than 45 days prior to
departure, due to new federal grant requirements. Grantees are required
to provide a written report on the financial and academic aspects of
their activity upon return, which may be published on globalEDGE. For 2007-2008, MSU-CIBER actively seeks
grant applications that focus on national security and risk.
Curriculum Development
These grants are available to faculty for the development curricular activities that are of importance to global competitiveness of U.S. firms and contain a significant international component.
Research
Research grants are available to faculty and graduate students to support cutting-edge research in international business studies.
Professional Development
These grants support the professional development activities of faculty members and graduate students engaged in international business work. As a policy, MSU-CIBER supports scholarly activities that have a significant international dimension. This includes presentations at both domestic and international conferences, where the paper/research incorporates a clear international component.
Study Abroad Scholarships
Study abroad scholarships are available to undergraduate business students participating in summer, semester-long, or academic-year study abroad programs. MSU-CIBER awards scholarships twice a year, in the fall for winter semester awards and in the spring for summer, fall semester, and academic year awards. Preference is given to those students studying abroad in locations other than Western Europe.
IB Specialization Scholarships
Twenty scholarships are available each fall to outstanding undergraduate business students with a declared IB specialization. Awards are based on completion of the IB specialization requirements, student GPA, and a short essay.
