The Otterbein University Faculty Collaborative International Enrichment Grant is designed to expand faculty
members’ international learning, awareness, and experience, both for the potential enhancement of the
curriculum and for their intellectual enrichment. Although global learning can be meaningfully addressed in a
local or broader national context, the purpose of these grants involves the travel, collaboration, and
immersion of a team in a context outside of the United States.
