The tC call for projects is open now!
With this year’s call for projects, transCampus wants to support tC project groups to successfully apply for comprehensive research grants from national or European funding bodies.

Funding of up to EUR 40,000 (TUD) plus GBP 20,000 (KCL) can be applied for.
The application deadline is 15 October 2024.
We strongly recommend contacting our transCampus team in advance and exploring suitable external funding opportunities. The colleagues from Research Funding and the EPC will also be happy to advise you.

The projects should pursue the following objectives:
- intensifying and/or expanding an existing research collaboration;
- submitting a joint research proposal to an external funding body;
- preparing joint publications.
The projects should preferably be located in the following research areas:
