Receipt Deadline : open deadline, ordinarily two months before travel
The RHE International Travel Fund has been established to support international travel by faculty members who are making scholarly presentations or serving in a leadership capacity for an international scholarly organization.
All Group I RHE faculty members are eligible for this funding. The trip must be approved through normal regional campus processes and funding guidelines. The amount requested from RHE must be matched by the campus and will not exceed $1,000. Eligibility is limited to one trip every two years. Trips to Canada will not normally be covered by this fund.
You are encouraged to apply to the International Travel Fund at Athens to obtain part of the funding for your trip. RHE does not require that you do this, although your home campus may make this a requirement. Applications to this fund and procedures are at:
Although budget constraints may limit the support available, every effort will be made to dispense the funding equitably among the campuses. Use the 51社区 Travel Reimbursement Policy 41.121 to determine limits on travel expenses.
To Apply: Provide a description of the activity (one page; maximum of two pages). Attach the conference/meeting documentation requesting/identifying your role in the scholarly work and an itemized budget with justification and documentation of the approved campus funding to:
