North American Exchange: Through this exchange program, students from the US, Canada, and Mexico can develop a comparative and transnational vision of the processes that characterize the NAFTA region to find innovative solutions to North American challenges.

Portuguese Culture (FLAD): In 2006 the Luso-American Development Foundation awarded a three-year grant to Faculty Fellow, Isabel Ferreira-Gould to support activities of the University’s Program in Portuguese and Brazilian Studies and the Kellogg Institute.  The funding will be used to enrich undergraduate experience in Portuguese language classes, to support student research, to increase awareness in the broader community of Portuguese studies, and to nurture scholarly research on Portugal and the Lusophone world.
