Description

This opportunity, administered by the U.S. Mission to the Dominican Republic, aims to promote U.S. leadership in higher education, foster partnerships between U.S. and Dominican universities, and engage U.S. and Dominican exchange alumni as leaders of innovation and collaboration. Funded projects should introduce U.S.-based educational models, teaching methods, and research approaches, while establishing or expanding institutional linkages between higher education institutions in both countries. Activities may include faculty collaboration, student training, joint research, mentorship, and initiatives that raise awareness of study and exchange opportunities in the United States. The program advances U.S. foreign policy by building long-term academic partnerships and supporting alumni-led initiatives that contribute to economic growth and mutual understanding.
