Program Development

Fulbright Program
Fulbright grants are made to U.S. citizens and nationals of other countries for a variety of educational activities, primarily university lecturing, advanced research, graduate study and teaching in elementary and secondary schools. Since the program’s inception, more than 250,000 participants --chosen for their leadership potential-- have had the opportunity to observe each other’s political, economic and cultural institutions. Of these participants, 42,200 have been overseas academics and professionals who have conducted research or taught in U.S. universities as Fulbright Visiting Scholars.

Transnational & Global Studies Center
The Transnational & Global Studies Center, housed within the UF International Center, is a Title VI National Resource Center funded in part by the US Department of Education. Like all Title VI centers, TGSC focuses on language, area studies, and teacher training to foster interest and skills to international education. The themes of the center are identity, diaspora (dispersion of a people from their original homeland), and migration: global governance and human security; and science, technology, and communications.
International Agreements
The University of Florida regularly enters into agreements with institutions abroad. These agreements provide opportunities for student exchange, faculty & scholar exchange, study abroad, and research collaborations.
International Speakers Program
The objective of the International Speakers Program is to encourage discussion and debate at UF on major international and global issues. We do this by providing matching funds to departments, schools, and colleges that bring speakers to campus to address issues with an international or global focus of broad interest.
Country Specialist Database
This database is designed to enable UF faculty and staff to share their interest and expertise in a country by providing a list of UF professionals who have such knowledge.
Internationalizing the Curriculum Awards
As part of the continuing effort to meet UF's strategic goal of internationalizing the campus and curriculum, the UF International Center (UFIC) will again make grants to UF faculty for proposals that add international components to an existing course or create new courses with substantial international content. The Transnational and Global Studies Center (TGSC) and Research and Graduate Programs (RGP) will also provide grants in the same competition.
