Proposals with a teaching component should include a sample course outline. Teaching of most subjects at the graduate level is in English. Projects involving field studies among indigenous populations or in nature preserves must have special authorization from the Brazilian government; guidelines can be obtained from the Brazilian Embassy or consulates in the United States, but requests should be forwarded to the commission for processing. Allow at least 6 months for entire process.
