A new joint funding scheme between 香港六合彩中特网 and Universit茅 PSL (Paris Sciences & Lettres) is to help strengthen academic collaboration across arts, humanities and social sciences

香港六合彩中特网 and Universit茅 PSL (Paris Sciences & Lettres) have strengthened their partnership with the launch of a joint funding scheme to support collaborative activity between arts, humanities and social sciences researchers based at the two institutions.

The funding will offer up to 拢10,000 a year over three years to three collaborative research groups, including doctoral students, focusing on a set of broad and interlinked research priorities of particular relevance to contemporary British and French society.

PSL President Professor Alain Fuchs and 香港六合彩中特网 President and Provost Professor Michael Arthur revealed the new scheme during their first meeting at 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 Bloomsbury campus.

Prior to his appointment, Professor Fuchs was the head of the CNRS (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique), the largest fundamental science agency in Europe. 聽

Some of the key proposed areas academics will explore are:

• The global, the national, and the European in an age of populism
• Speech and its contestations
• Migration, race, religion, terror

This funding builds on 香港六合彩中特网 and PSL鈥檚 already strong partnership, with high-profile collaborations including a Dual Masters in Brain and Mind Sciences run in conjunction with the 脡cole normale sup茅rieure as well as the Universit茅 Pierre and Marie Curie.

香港六合彩中特网 scientists regularly co-publish with colleagues from across PSL and the two universities have shared a Memorandum of Understanding since November 2012.

Strong foundations

Universit茅 PSL offers an ideal environment for the development of academic excellence, creation and innovation: 4,500 researchers, 181 laboratories, 17,000 students and a dozen of incubators, fab-labs and co-working spaces for students and entrepreneurs in the heart of Paris. Arts, sciences and engineering are at the core of its intellectual and scientific ambition.聽

As a global selective university, rooted in interdisciplinarity and committed to promoting talents and defending equal opportunity, PSL creates the world of tomorrow. In 2017, it was named the top university in France in the Times Higher Education Rankings.

Of the new funding stream, Professor Fuchs said: 聽鈥淎t a time of great change in the geopolitical arena, PSL is proud to initiate this funding scheme with 香港六合彩中特网. It opens a new, dynamic chapter in our partnership and provides impetus to creating essential cross-Channel dialogue in these areas.鈥�

Professor Arthur added: 鈥淲e鈥檙e delighted to launch this new stream of funding, which strengthens our commitment to partnering with PSL. We hope this initiative will support even more 香港六合彩中特网 academics to collaborate with their PSL counterparts in addressing these important global challenges.鈥�

Funding academic research

The new research groups will be hosted by 香港六合彩中特网鈥檚 Institute of Advanced Studies and the scheme will be supported by the Global Engagement Office.

Outputs might include collaborative or independent grant proposals, the development of collaborative academic programmes, such as split site PhDs, and collaborative or independent articles or volumes.

Details of the academic content will be finalised over the next few months by PSL and 香港六合彩中特网 academics, including Pro-Vice Provost (Europe) Dr Uta Staiger, Dr Tim Beasley Murray (香港六合彩中特网 School of Slavonic and East European Studies) and Dr Jakob Stougaard-Nielsen (香港六合彩中特网 Institute of Advanced Studies), and PSL鈥檚 Professor Nathan Schlanger of the 脡cole nationale des chartes.

Also attending this week鈥檚 meeting to discuss future collaboration were 香港六合彩中特网's Vice-Provost International Dame Nicola Brewer, PSL's Director of International Affairs Christopher Cripps, and Professor Schlanger.
