The fund is open to colleges, schools, and academic units (CSUs) that report to the executive vice president and provost. Examples of eligible events include academic conferences, symposia, lectures, musical performances, art exhibitions, or other interactive events that promote internationalization. Events must be on campus and cross-institutional involving multiple UT Austin colleges, schools, and/or units (CSUs). Virtual events are not eligible.

Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis. To ensure adequate review and planning time, applications must be submitted a minimum of two months before the event.
