The International Conference Travel Grant provides partial travel support to University of Notre Dame faculty presenting a paper or poster at a conference or workshop outside the United States. Administered by the Franco Family Institute for Liberal Arts and the Public Good, the program supports international participation tied to a specific research presentation rather than attendance alone.
The program focuses on professionally organized conferences and workshops, not scholarly travel more broadly. Invited lectures, time-limited organizations, and informal gatherings of scholars are outside its scope. Applicants must provide confirmation of an accepted presentation and explain the conference’s significance. Projects that have not previously received Franco Institute grants receive priority consideration.
