Universitas 21

The University of Nottingham is proud to be one of the founder members of Universitas 21 (U21), the leading international network of research-intensive universities. Through the U21 network we are actively engaged in a range of collaborative activities with like-minded universities around the world. This enables us to:

encourage greater levels of student and staff mobility
develop deeper links with prestigious international partners
pursue joint research on a truly global stage

The Universitas 21 network supports staff and students in many activities at the University of Nottingham.

Universitas 21 Joint PhD programme

The joint PhD programme, launched by the Universitas 21 network in May 2009, enables doctoral students to embark on joint degrees which will considerably enhance their research and employment opportunities on an international scale.

Universitas 21 Prize Scholarship

U21 Prize Scholarships are offered to full and part-time PhD students to participate in U21 mobility by spending a period of a month at a U21 partner institution.

Universitas 21 Student Mobility

The network of Universitas 21 universities has opened up student mobility options to a much wider group of students at Nottingham through the options of semester long programmes, summer schools and specialist research conferences.

Universitas 21 Staff Mobility

University of Nottingham staff can also benefit from the network, whether this is though a collaborative group or by taking part in a specialised conference. The University of Nottingham has a central fund to help staff towards the costs of travelling to partners and to help support U21 projects.
