Challenge-based research

The ECIU University implements a new model of research and innovation, based on a virtual collaborative environment in which scientists and researchers of the member universities jointly undertake research initiatives and project activities.

ECIU offers researchers:

  • More projects and cooperation opportunities within the consortium

  • Scientific community to exchange thoughts and ideas (R&I HUB)

  • Easy way to find partners for your projects

  • Researcher Mobility Fund

  • 5 main research fields

  • Events and workshops for researchers 

The ECIU University research strategy is aimed at addressing complex research challenges.

The ECIU R&I Agenda has been developed through a co-creative process, with topics of common interest identified by researchers as a source of guidance and inspiration. ECIU is building open, interdisciplinary communities of researchers and stakeholders working together to address societal challenges in 5 thematic areas:

  • Energy and Sustainability

  • Circular Economy

  • Transport and Mobility

  • Resilient Communities

  • Citizen Science

Researcher Mobility Fund (RMF)

The ECIU University is committed to ensuring that its researchers are connected across all member institutions.

A researcher at any member institution of the ECIU University may apply for a grant for travel and associated costs to visit researchers at other member institution to establish and extend scientific collaboration.

ECIU University recognises the importance of developing a culture of transnational and multidisciplinary collaboration among its researchers at different member institutions all together. 

The Aim of the ECIU University Researcher Mobility Fund:

  • Promote interactions and strengthen research collaboration among researchers across all member institutions of the ECIU University.

  • Catalysing international research excellence and improving high-quality research outputs within ECIU University, for example towards joint research funding applications, publications, and research projects.

  • Support professional development in research career through acquiring specific know-how from experience and good practice at another member institution.

  • Provide access to excellent research facilities at member institutions of the ECIU University.
