Description
Harvard University’s President’s Innovation Fund for International Experiences (PIFIE) provides seed funding to faculty members at any Harvard school to develop creative and significant academic experiences abroad for Harvard College students. The fund encourages participation across Harvard’s graduate and professional schools, departments, centers, and other academic units to expand international opportunities for undergraduates.
Supported through the generosity of David Rockefeller, the program welcomes experience-based courses overseas, including courses before or after an international experience. It also supports involving undergraduates in ongoing overseas projects sponsored by Harvard academic units, as well as other innovative projects. Creativity and academic significance are central to the fund’s purpose.
