Call for submissions for joint projects with the University of St Andrews

Charles University and the University of St Andrews have established a joint seed funding program to facilitate collaboration within our strategic partnership. After a pilot launch in 2022, this is the second call for proposals for joint initiatives between Charles University and the University of St Andrews. The funding will enable academics from all disciplines to identify strengths, explore areas of synergy and develop research and academic innovation projects. Joint seed funding aims to support the first steps of cooperation and is not intended to be complete funding of projects.

Possible collaboration formats may include:

  • Intensive research seminars
  • Pedagogical workshops (e.g. cooperation in the field of online or other courses).
  • Short-term research stays
  • Summer/winter programs
  • Collaborative International Online Education (COIL) Projects

FINANCING

Successful applicants will receive up to £5,000 (approx. €6,000) or £2,500 (approx. €3,000) from each institution.

The project timeline should not exceed 12 months from the project start date. The projects are expected to start on September 1, 2023 at the latest.

REQUIREMENTS

Supported activities should have clearly defined goals and serve for the further development of new joint projects. Activities can take place in Prague or St Andrews. The motivation for the activity should be clearly explained, including how the involved faculties and universities can benefit from this cooperation in the long term.
