CIBER offers awards to Krannert faculty to conduct research or engage in course development activities during the summer. These awards may be used for salary support, research assistance or other research costs such as data acquisition.
Guidelines
All full-time faculty members are encouraged to submit proposals for research in international business or for course development that contributes to the internationalizion of the Krannert curriculum. Theoretical and empirical projects are invited. Individual and team proposals from all areas will be considered, and collaborations with faculty from other schools at Purdue University are encouraged.

CIBER Directory of Faculty Development
in International Business (FDIB) Programs
This directory contains current (as of 2007-2008 school year) information on Faculty Development Programs at the thirty CIBERs across the United States. Most CIBERs will also hold additional conferences and workshops on international trade and commerce and business language education.
The Centers for International Business Education and Research (CIBERs) were created under the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act of 1988 to increase and promote the nation's capacity for international understanding and economic enterprise. Administered by the U. S. Department of Education under Title VI, Part B of the Higher Education Act of 1965, the CIBER program links the manpower and information needs of U. S. business with the international education, language training and research capacities of universities across the U. S.
Purdue CIBER encourages faculty to look over the list of Faculty Developement Programs to see if there are any that might help to bring an international perspective to your cirriculum. If you have any further questions, feel free to contact us.
