Every year, the Open Seed Fund program at the School of Engineering funds new collaborations between our faculty and researchers from distinguished international universities and research institutions. Through this program, it is possible to explore novel collaborative lines of research and strengthen international academic exchange, involving both professors and students who participate in the projects and receive financial support for research stays abroad and the execution of planned activities. Individual grants total an average of USD 10,000 provided by the School of Engineering with an equivalent contribution from the international counterpart. <\/p>\n

This year, the following proposals have been selected for funding:
