University of Liverpool and SumDU will be collaborating this summer on a key research theme, Digitalisation and Digital Transformation.
A Call for Visiting and “Remote from Ukraine” Scholarships Proposals
The University of Liverpool and Sumy State University aim to establish a strong comprehensive partnership across all academic activities and initiate our collaboration in research and innovation. Our objective is to support research teams, perform joint research, provide complementary expertise, and develop plans for long-term research and innovation projects.
At the initial stage, we aim to focus on Digitalisation and Digital Transformation research which is the strategic priority of both universities and countries. The research twinning activities in 2023 will be organised in the form of “remote from Ukraine” and visiting scholarships to the University of Liverpool(UoL). UoL will cover the expenses of the visiting scholars at the level of £3000 per person and the “remote from Ukraine” scholars will receive a bursary at the level of £1000 per person. UoL academics are welcome to submit a proposal in the area of Digitalisation and Digital Transformation for hosting visiting and “remote form Ukraine” schools. The proposals will be available for Ukrainian academics to apply by submitting a justification of their suitability for these projects.
