Fellowships, Grants, and Awards

Through its affiliation with CIBER and the resources at OSU, the International Programs Office at Fisher is able to offer many grants and awards. Below are some of the most common:

Fisher Exchange Travel Grants

Through CIBER and the generosity of private donors, the International Programs Office offers travel grants to students who participate in University-endorsed Study Abroad Programs. While any University-endorsed Study Abroad Program will be considered for a grant, priority is given to business students attending programs at one of Fisher’s partner institutions.

Foreign Language and Area Studies

The Foreign Language & Area Studies Fellowships are offered to graduate students and professional school students who enroll in foreign language instruction at OSU or abroad. The purpose of these fellowships is to promote the creation of world area specialists, and business students are encouraged to apply.

Global Research Awards

The Global Competence Award program is one of the ways in which Fisher’s CIBER supports faculty in their international research interests. Any project will be considered for this award, but interdisciplinary or cross-functional projects are often given priority. In addition, the International Programs Office encourages projects which relate to CIBER’s theme (the management of global strategic alliances).
