The 2017-18 competitions for the Short-Term Exchange Program (SEP), funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development (DFATD), are now open. The SEP provides students and faculty from selected Latin American and Caribbean countries with research or study scholarships at Canadian universities. It is divided into four sub-programs:

• the
• the
• the (for students)
• the

Specific details for each sub-program, and links to further information, are provided above.

Awards are offered to both undergraduate and graduate students – and in the case of the Canada-CARICOM Faculty Leadership Program, to faculty and staff.  However, please note that in order to bring an undergraduate to »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ under the Program, there must be a formal exchange agreement already in place between »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ and the student’s home institution.  For graduate students and faculty members, it is desirable (but not mandatory) that such exchange agreements be in place. For a list of »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥â€™s existing exchange agreements, please visit the International Centre’s website here.

Please note that foreign students and faculty cannot apply directly for these awards.  Any »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ faculty member who is interested in applying to the SEP to bring a graduate scholar to »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ under his/her supervision must apply on behalf of that scholar.

As in previous years, »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ applications to the SEP will be facilitated by International Research & Development (IR&D) in »ÆÉ«Ö±²¥ Research Services.  Any faculty member interested in applying to any of the programs is asked to contact the International Research Facilitator (jennifer.morawiecki@dal.ca) in IR&D, for more information and support in preparing an application.

Deadline: 25 April 2017
