Candidates will receive a contribution to their travel cost (1 allowance only) and a stipend for the duration of their mobility. The duration of the mobility can be broken down as long as the overall duration meets the requirements of the funding. Candidates will need to fund any additional travel expenses if they split their mobility.

If your research team is considering hosting a North American PhD student or a Post-Doctorate, some participation funding may also be available to your team at the end of the project. Please contact Celine Reynaud [Celine.reynaud@glasgow.ac.uk] for more information.

Deadline

The final call for funding is now open. Applications for the final call will be considered on their own merit on a first-come first-served basis. The call will close once all funded places are allocated or on December 31, 2016, whichever happens the soonest.
