In the framework of our partnership with the National University of Singapore (NUS), two calls for projects were launched in 2024, enabling Université Paris Cité and NUS communities to further consolidate their ties. The calls were aimed at academics and doctoral students from all disciplines, with a focus on interdisciplinary projects. Of the 19 applications submitted, 9 projects were funded in 2024, for a total amount of 150k€.

Developing Long-term Interdisciplinary Projects

The objective of the “Paris-NUS” calls for projects is to support interdisciplinary projects between partners, promote long-term cooperation between disciplines, from the life, physical and engineering sciences to humanities and social sciences, enabling the forging of new collaborations.

In 2024, two calls for projects have been launched:

  • Call for research projects (€50,000 per project) & doctoral mobility (€5,000 per project)
  • Call for educational innovation projects (€50,000 per project)

The projects will be funded for a 2-year period from September 2024 to August 2026. Among the criteria used to select applications was the demonstrated potential for continuing collaboration beyond the funding period and for developing a cooperative network.

An Engaged Partnership

Université Paris Cité and the National University of Singapore organise and coordinate activities fostering the scientific dynamic as well as student and researcher’s mobility between France and Southeast Asia. Through the partnership, UPCité places its commitment to planetary health into perspective in cooperation with the Women’s Health Institute. This collaboration contributes to the development and influence of Université Paris Cité internationally, particularly in the Asia-Pacific region, and with its Parisian partners.
