ADDITIONAL FUNDS APPROVED FOR CDP+ II CALL TOTAL : 80.000,00 EUR!
It is our utmost pleasure to inform you that additional funds have been secured for Course Development Program +. After reviewing WUS Austria request for additional funds, the Austrian Development Cooperation confirmed its consent for reallocation of 18.730,16 EUR for the implementation of additional 4 courses received in the CDP+ II Call.
As a result, apart from already approved II Call courses (see below), the following courses have also been approved:
- Geographic Information Systems, Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, University of Sarajevo (without the courses: Intro Geophysics, Mineralogy II)
- Chemistry, Faculty of Health Studies, University of Sarajevo
- The Integrated Product Development, Technical Faculty, University of Bihać
- Business Data Networks and Communications, Faculty of Economics, University of Sarajevo
The above listed couses have been evaluated and presented at the CDP+ II Call Selection Panel, which took place on June 23rd 2006 at ACCESS. Due to limited funds, they have not been approved by the Selection Commitee, but they were put on a waiting list. With additional funds, WUS Austria is able to offer grants for these CDP+ courses.
Therefore, in the II round of CDP+ in 2005/ 2007, 9 applications (11 courses) have been approved in total. The total budget for CDP+ II Call now amounts to 81.471,08 EUR whereas the total budget for CDP+ implementation (both Calls) is now 235.930, 16 EUR.
We would like to use this opportunity to thank the donor – Austrian Development Cooperation and to congradulate all the CDP+ grantees and wish them successful project implementation!
