UK EA maintains a fund to support faculty international travel for the purposes of establishing a new UK faculty-directed education abroad program. Grants may be awarded for either a course that embeds an international travel into a fall or spring semester course at UK or for a program to be offered during the summer or winter term.

This requirement applies to all courses, even those that have already been approved by the University Senate to be taught domestically.
