Faculty Enrichment Program and Faculty Research Program Awards for Academics (FEP/FRP)

The application deadline for both Awards in Canadian Studies, the Faculty Enrichment Program and the Faculty Research Program (FEP/FRP), is December 4th, 2006.

1. The Faculty Enrichment Program is designed to increase knowledge and understanding of Canada abroad by assisting academics in higher education institutions to develop and teach courses about Canada in their own discipline, as part of their regular teaching load. The program enables academic award holders to go to Canada and gather the necessary information and material to devise a new course on Canada, or to modify or extend significantly the Canadian component of an existing course(s). Disciplines lending themselves most readily to Canadian Studies course development are the social sciences and the humanities, such as business studies, economics, law, international relations, history, politics, sociology, geography, arts, literature in English or French, linguistics, linguistic duality, education, communications policy, media studies, planning, science policy, social administration, environmental studies, architecture, and other related fields.

2. The Faculty Research Program is designed to assist individual academics in higher education institutions to undertake short-term research about Canada or on an aspect of Canada's bilateral relations with the participating countries. The purpose is to increase knowledge and understanding of Canada through publication of pertinent articles in the foreign or international scholarly press. The award assists with direct costs related to the research project, and, when a research trip to Canada is warranted, provides assistance towards international airfare and a weekly flat rate allowance.
