The EIB University Research Sponsorship Programme

The EIBURS Programme will provide support to EU University Research Centres working on research topics and themes of major interest to the EIB.

Main features of EIBURS

EIB sponsorships are awarded through a competitive process to interested University Departments or Research Centres associated with Universities in the EU, Acceding or Accession Countries, with recognised expertise in areas of direct interest to the Bank. The sponsorship aims to expand their activities in these areas.

A EIBURS sponsorship will entitle the beneficiary (the EIBURS Centre) to obtain up to 100 000 euros/year, for a period of three years, in exchange for the commitment to develop additional activities to those normally carried out by the centre. These activities will be jointly agreed and will entail the delivery of a variety of outputs (research, education, networking, dissemination of results, etc.) that will be the subject of a contractual agreement with the Bank.

The initiative on academic and research activities is expected to come from the University. The Bank could, however, propose some specific activities, in particular regarding research and continuous education involving EIB staff.

The lines of research to be financed by EIBURS are defined by the CBU (Comité BEI-Universités / EIB-Universities Committee). The number of new EIBURS sponsorships made by the EIB will depend on available budget.

For the 2010-2013 period, the selected lines of research are the following:

The deadline for presentation of proposals is 10 September 2010. Proposals submitted after this date will not be considered.
