On July 1, 2006, brock university announced a grant of $100,000 from the bill & maurice elias international achievement awards that will establish an instructor-led curriculum award program for faculty at college and universities that wish to enhance their curriculums through the incorporation of Brock courses.

The grant will support up to 10 courses per year for a period of three years. The grant has been allotted to the brock university campus in st. Catharines , ontario . This is an institutional grant awarded by regional bodies who have oversight on areas such as course development and related activities at member institutions across canada . In this case, it is led by the british columbia council on international education (bccei).

The bill & maurice elias international achievement awards were established in 1999 as a way for the federal government to honour those individuals who have made outstanding contributions to international education. The $100,000 grant from the bill and maurice elias international achievement awards will allow brock university to enhance its curriculum through the incorporation of brock courses. Brock has been designated by bccei as an "entrance point" institution for this awards program. As such, we are eligible to apply directly for funding without having to go through a regional application process or rely on applications from other institutions within our region ( ontario ).

Brock University is thrilled about this development and looks forward with great anticipation to working closely with all faculty who wish to enhance their curriculums through the incorporation of Brock courses. read full guide of brock university international curriculum award on our website
