Delegation Learning Goals
The International Partnership Delegation Grants are intended to fund participation by GVSU faculty and staff on an interdisciplinary team visit to a partner institution. The delegation will spend time on the partnership campus, learning about many aspects of that university’s host city, nation, and culture. Together, they will seek new perspectives from counterparts at the host campus that can be brought back to GVSU to share with our own campus community. The team will also extend an invitation to 1-2 individuals at the host campus to visit GVSU during the following academic year.

- Partnership Sustenance Grant
Grant Application
Deadline: Applications will be considered on a rolling basis
The Padnos International Center (PIC) works collaboratively with departments and colleges across campus to develop meaningful international programs that enhance the academic activities of the university. In support of our mission, it is our goal to not only introduce colleagues to GVSU's international partnerships, but also to encourage long-term cooperative activities that benefit and enrich both institutions.
The Partnership Sustenance Grant has been developed to support faculty that have been involved with a partner institution and have made significant contributions to the development of the partnership. The grant offers funding for short-term exchange opportunities that focus on nurturing relationships and sustaining program activities.
