GLCA Global Crossroads grants Toggle Accordion

Albion College’s international liaison to the GLCA/ GLAA is Dr. Midori Yoshii. GLCA grant proposals are submitted directly to GLCA. Prior to submitting a proposal to GLCA, discuss with Albion College’s Office of Corporate and Foundation Relations office.

GLCA Global Crossroads Grant opportunities include:

  1. Global Course Connections – Portions of two courses offered on two or more Alliance campuses in different countries are connected via technology. A requirement is that students across the courses work collaboratively to explore course topics. Courses looking for a Global Course Connections match can be found here.
  2. Themed Courses – The focus is on collaborative development of shared course materials, typically resulting in one or more course modules that are used in the courses offered by the collaborating faculty members.
  3. Global Learning Courses – Global Learning is different from Global Course Connections in three respects: Developing cultural competence must be an assessable outcome of all Global Learning courses; Global Learning courses must have at least two thirds of their syllabi in common; and at least one of the schools in each connection MUST be a GLCA school.
  4. New Directions in Global Scholarship – This program supports GLCA faculty members wishing to develop a new area of scholarly expertise that extends the global reach of current research or teaching. Recipients must seek out collaborators from Alliance institutions with expertise in the subject.
