Organizados pelo Watson Institute for International Relations da Universidade de Brown e patrocinados pelo Santander Universidades nos Estados Unidos da América, os programas terão lugar no Campus de Brown, em Providence, de 6 a 20 de Junho de 2015, e envolvem residência no local, sendo que os custos das sessões, acomodação, alimentação e, em alguns casos, também as viagens são cobertos pela Universidade aos participantes.
O prazo de entrega das candidaturas foi recentemente estendido até 26 de Janeiro, pelo que aproveitámos a sugestão dos nossos colegas dos Estados Unidos para divulgá-lo em algumas Universidades Portuguesas com as quais temos Convénio. Assim, e porque ainda temos uma semana, gostaríamos de convidar professores e investigadores da Universidade da Beira Interior a candidatarem-se a este programa.
