New EU-CONEXUS Student Research Hubs
The European University for Smart Urban Coastal Sustainability (EU-CONEXUS) is pleased to announce that seven Student Research Hub (SRH) projects are currently available.
SRH projects are two-month research training programmes for undergraduate and master’s students from EU-CONEXUS partner universities. During the trainings, students collaborate with PhD candidates (Leaders), under the guidance of academic staff and researchers (Mentors), to address scientific challenges.
Each SRH team works on specific research tasks in a dynamic setting, which may be physical, remote, or blended.
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA:
1) Current undergraduate and post-graduate master students from the EU-CONEXUS universities.
2) Strong English language proficiency (B2 or higher).
