Purpose of Grants

U.S.-Russia Virtual University Partnerships (UniVIP) is a network for U.S. and Russian universities to navigate the challenging global international education environment, test and improve application of innovative methods for virtual exchange. Grants provide resources to educators in the United States and Russia to adapt policies and practices for online teaching and learning, integrate technology solutions, and co-create curriculum for virtual faculty and student exchanges.

Administered by American Councils for International Education (American Councils), five (5) grants of up to $15,000 will be awarded to educators affiliated with U.S. higher education institutions to launch projects advancing university partnerships in 2024. Projects may support any area of virtual and innovative activity (e.g., incorporating Artificial Intelligence (AI) in teaching and learning, EdTech, building capacity for remote teaching and learning, integrating virtual reality into the classroom setting, improving the student user experience in virtual and hybrid learning environments, virtual competency skills for university faculty and students, etc.).

U.S. faculty members and administrators are eligible to apply for partnership awards with Russian institutional partners. Applications submitted by Russian universities are not eligible. You may download an Application Form and Budget Template. To submit an application, complete and submit this online application form by February 16, 2024.
