Brazilian Initiation Scholarship (BIS) Competition

Brazilian Studies Association announces the 2014 Brazilian Initiation Scholarship (BIS) Competition! The deadline for the application is November 15, 2013.

The Brazilian Initiation Scholarship (BIS) is a key component of BRASA’s agenda to expand Brazilian Studies in the United States. BRASA invites applications from graduate and undergraduate students for a one-time $1,500 travel scholarship to do exploratory research in Brazil. This scholarship targets aspiring Brazilianists with relatively little or no experience in Brazil. It seeks to contribute to the student’s initial trip (for a period from six weeks to three months), to heighten the student’s interest in Brazil, and deepen her/his commitment to Brazilian studies in the United States. Students are encouraged to combine this scholarship with other grants or awards. You could be the 1st UW-Madison student to win a BIS!
