European Union-United States Atlantis Program Grant Competition for FY 2010

Overview

FIPSE is pleased to announce the Atlantis Program competition for fiscal year 2010. The competition opened January 8, 2010 and closes April 8, 2010. The main focus of Atlantis is on supporting innovative institutional projects for cooperation in the higher education field, including vocational training, which are designed to develop and implement double or joint “transatlantic degrees” for students in the EU and U.S. The program may also support projects to promote other forms of EU-U.S. cooperation in higher education and vocational training, including academic term mobility projects and policy studies.

Atlantis is funded jointly by the European Commission’s Directorate for Education and Culture and by the U.S. Department of Education’s Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE). Joint applications must be submitted by the U.S applicant to FIPSE and by the EU applicant institution to the European Commission by April 8, 2010.
