The submission deadline for the URSS 2020 has been extended until Tuesday 14 January at 11.55pm. This is the absolute deadline and we will not be able to accept any applications beyond this date.

EUTOPIA is an alliance of six European universities that exists to create a connected and inclusive community addressing global and local challenges. Funded by the European Commission through the Erasmus+ ‘European Universities’ programme, EUTOPIA is comprised of Vrije Universiteit Brussel, the University of Gothenburg, CY Cergy Paris Université , Pompeu Fabra University – Barcelona, the University of Warwick, and is led by the University of Ljubljana.

This year EUTOPIA will offer two Warwick students a 1500 euro bursary to carry out a URSS summer research project at one the EUTOPIA partners. The funding will support EUTOPIA’s mission of working as a network of European campuses, through collaborative research, increased mobility of students, academics and staff, and shared innovations that serve the wider public in regional communities.

If you are interested, please apply by completing the EUTOPIA application form.
Application deadline is 16 March 2020.

The drop-in sessions will resume this Wednesday 8 January between 2-4pm in the Student Opportunity Hub.

If you have any questions about the URSS or would like me to look at your application feel free to drop in any time between 2-4pm. No appointment required.

Due to the industrial action we have decided to extend the closing date for submissions by a week. The new deadline is Sunday 12 January 2020.

Connecting Cultures are keen to support research via the university's URSS scheme. While we hope to offer some Connecting Cultures-specific bursaries in the future, this year we can help with mentoring and research support for projects that relate to our research themes: Connecting Cultures
