Studieavdelingen (SA) announces OS funds (Organisational Support) for the academic year 2024-25. The OS funds are generated by mobility through the Erasmus program and will be used for measures that will promote international student mobility with good academic grounding at UiB.
Both academic and administrative staff at the department and faculty can apply for OS funds.
Slike tiltak kan vere:
- Arrangement/tiltak for å fremje utreisande studentutveksling, så som informasjonsmøter og sosiale arrangement
- Arrangement/tiltak for å betre integrering av innreisande utvekslingsstudentar
- Kontaktreiser til partnarar for å legge til rette for og kvalitetssikre utreisande studentutveksling. SA legg til grunn at det ikkje bør reise meir enn to tilsette.
- Tiltak som fremmer satsingsområdet inkludering og mangfald innan internasjonalisering.
- Tiltak som fremjer internasjonalisering med eit lågt klimaavtrykk.
Such measures can be:
- Events/measures to promote outgoing student exchange, such as information meetings and social events
- Arrangements/measures to improve the integration of incoming exchange students
- Contact trips to partners to facilitate and ensure the quality of outgoing student exchanges. SA assumes that no more than two employees should travel.
- Measures that promote the investment area of inclusion and diversity within internationalisation.
- Measures that promote internationalization with a low climate footprint.
In principle, applicants will be covered up to 50% of the expenses. AT BIO: Applicants must therefore have a plan to cover the remaining expenses by other funds.
For small amounts, we may consider covering more than 50% of the total costs. The maximum allocated amount per application is NOK 30,000.
Applications for support must be sent to the Study Administration Department in ePhorte 24/12229, with an overview of how the money is to be used.
The applications will be processed continuously. We ask the faculty to make the support scheme known in their academic circles. If they have questions, contact the Department of Studies, contact person Helge Bjørlo.
