Call for VIS grants and SoTL project kick-off

Call for Virtual International Exchange (VIS-)grants

VIS-initiative provides funding for the set up of Virtual International Cooperation Projects.

Upcoming: TAG Scholarships of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) grant

In February, the TAG will publish the new call for the Scholarships of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) grant. The SoTL grant aims to stimulate and support teachers who want to conduct a systematic and meaningful inquiry into their own teaching practice. The SoTL grants are intended for all teachers, both starting and more experienced, and can be used for small (e.g. one lecture or seminar) and somewhat larger (e.g. a whole course or significant part of a course) projects. A maximum of six grants are awarded (max. €5,000 per project). The deadline (end of May) for submitting proposals will be published in the Call for Proposals. More information on the grant can be found on the TAG website.
