In an effort to provide meaningful educative experiences abroad for our students, UK Education Abroad has partnered with EuroLearn to provide a unique opportunity for students to spend a semester abroad as a junior researcher at one of twelve top research institutions in Europe. The EuroScholars program has been especially designed for students who are interested in discovering their potential for a research career. They are looking for outstanding and motivated advanced undergraduate, honors or graduate students. A strong interest in an academic/research career and a GPA of 3.4 or higher are also required. Students do not need to have research experience, however, science students should have ample academic experience in a laboratory setting.
Supervision will be provided by academic staff, working on and/or responsible for the Research Project. The curriculum will consist of the Research Project (main element), literature review (independent study), elective (if applicable), and a language and culture course at the host university. Each semester a central European Midstay Program (2-3 days) is organized for all students. The program isn’t inexpensive, but Education Abroad will be sure to advise students on financial aid and scholarship opportunities.
