FSTP grants for the international mobility of URJC students

UPRAISE, a project funded under the Digital Europe Programme, launches a call for applications for students. The initiative aims to support international mobility for students enrolled in eligible URJC programmes, enabling them to develop their academic and professional skills in advanced digital technologies, including virtual worlds, extended reality (XR), artificial intelligence (AI), digital twins and related fields.

The programme offers financial support for international research stays, study periods, internships, thesis development and specialised training activities organised by UPRAISE consortium partners.

Activities

PhD outgoing mobility (M1): Research stays at institutions within the UPRAISE consortium for doctoral students, focusing on scientific collaboration, access to research infrastructure or thesis development.
Student outgoing mobility for studies, internships or thesis (M2): Study periods at partner universities, internships with industrial partners or consortium organisations, and thesis-related stays with co-supervision.
Winter/Summer Schools and Blended Intensive Programmes (M3): Participation in specialised training programmes organised by UPRAISE consortium partners, typically lasting one to two weeks.
