The Chancellor's Awards for International Engagement recognize UC Davis faculty and staff members for outstanding international engagement in carrying out the university’s mission of teaching, research and outreach.

The Excellence in Teaching for Global Learning Award, a partnership of Global Affairs and the Academic Senate, recognizes the commitment of UC Davis instructors who go above and beyond to make impactful global learning experiences accessible to UC Davis students.

Annually, Global Affairs invites the UC Davis community to celebrate international engagement and awards, network with colleagues, and make connections with others working in similar world regions.

Partnering with UC Davis colleges and schools, Global Affairs provides Seed Grants for International Activities to faculty taking on innovative research, service, and engagement projects around the world.

These grants are new, team-focused grants to fund locally executed but internationally oriented multi-disciplinary programs such as lectures and workshops that highlight and enhance UC Davis’ connections to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The Curriculum Enhancement Through Global Learning program provides concrete tools for UC Davis faculty members across all disciplines to make their course content, teaching techniques, and students’ experiences responsive to current global challenges and opportunities.

This program connects UC Davis faculty and staff with partner institutions, alumni and supporters around the world as an opportunity for UC Davis employees already planning international travel to extend their stay and, ultimately, be ambassadors for UC Davis—increasing the visibility of our international presence and creating meaningful connections worldwide.

Global Affairs provides announcements of various funding opportunities related to international research, teaching, and service—and partners with UC Davis departments and organizations, and senior government and foundation officials to host funding workshops that assist faculty and staff members in securing funding from highly competitive international grant programs.

The Fulbright Program offers a range of research and professional exchange opportunities for UC Davis faculty and staff in over 130 countries—and brings international scholars and students here for collaborations that transform the campus community and build bridges to all parts of the world.
