ACCIAC Opportunites for BC Faculty
office of international programs
Faculty Development Grants
Each summer a Boston College faculty member is invited to join colleagues from the ACC universities to participate in a research trip structured around an important international topic and geography outside the U.S. The dual purpose of these trips is to enhance the research and teaching capacities of each university as well as to advance research through collaboration among ACC universities.
Call for Participants
To this end, the IAC invites proposals from BC faculty in collaboration with other ACC faculty for the development of forthcoming summer overseas faculty collaborations.
