Harlow Incentive Program

To encourage and facilitate study abroad experiences for Memorial students studying at Harlow Campus, the Harlow Incentive Program provides incentives to academic units to offer courses that include student residency on the Harlow campus for all or part of a course.

The funding is dedicated to support a cohort of students taking part in a Harlow Campus program and must be used to encourage student participation.

For the 2016-17 academic year commencing with the fall 2016 semester, each academic unit will receive cohort-based funding as follows:

$1,500 per student per full semester for the first 10 students living and studying at Harlow Campus; and$1,000 per student per full semester for every additional student thereafter.

The funding package has two components: one based on the number of students in the cohort and one based on an in-kind component providing instructor accommodation on the Harlow Campus. For programs that involve residency of less than a full semester at Harlow, both components will be pro-rated based on the length of the residency.

A cohort is defined as a group of students taking one or more courses offered by a single academic unit or by a consortium of academic units.A full semester is one that aligns closely with full fall or winter undergraduate semesters at Memorial, e.g. a continuous instructional period approximately 12 weeks in length followed by an examination period.

To help units defray fixed costs associated with Harlow programming, Harlow Campus will provide in-kind instructor accommodation (one two-bedroom apartment per program). No additional funding will be provided in cases where additional or off-campus lodging is chosen or required.

Visits to UK partner campuses or hosting of UK faculty members for guest lectures at Harlow is strongly encouraged, and some costs incurred may be reimbursable based on the parameters of the visiting delegations protocol http://www.mun.ca/international/Visiting_Delegations/ of Memorial University.
