The Center for International Partnerships at IIE is excited to announce the opening of the application period for the 2016 International Academic Partnership Program: Brazil.

In recent years, Brazil has grown to become one of the top destinations for international academic exchange. With the momentum built from the Brazil Scientific Mobility Program, Brazil is poised to increase institutional linkages with U.S. institutions. This year’s program is meant to explore opportunities for partnership beyond the BSMP. All types of institutions, including those without a history of hosting BSMP students, are encouraged to apply. This year’s delegation to Brazil will be, in part, hosted by the Brazilian Fulbright Commission, and the trip will coincide with the FAUBI conference in Fortaleza in April 2016.
