About the strand
The University of Bath has built a strong portfolio of research-led collaborations, mobility and teaching links with Europe. As a reflection of both the uncertainties of Brexit and new trends in European higher education, this strand of funding supports projects which grow and deepen our relationships with European universities and research institutes. We encourage both existing and new partnerships, and in particular projects with the potential to create embedded and sustainable research-led networks.
If you are successful you could receive up to £5,000.
