Call for proposals Utrecht Educational Incentive Fund

It is again possible to submit applications for the Utrecht Stimuleringsfonds Onderwijs (USO). Do you have a convincing idea that you can contribute to innovation in education and quality of education? Then apply for a project now!

How can you have students carry out many experiments early on in their studies? How do you improve their language skills? And how do you ensure that teachers learn as much as possible from each other? These are just a few of the many questions in which the Utrecht Stimuleringsfonds Onderwijs (Utrecht Education Stimulation Fund) provides an impetus for the answer. The 2020 round will focus on two themes: Flexible education and Lifelong learning. It is also possible to apply for projects in the free category.

Interfaculty projects between €85,000 and €250,000 can be requested for the university-wide part of the incentive fund. A total of €1,000,000 is available for these projects. In addition, €1,000,000 is distributed among the faculties for faculty projects.

A proposal can now be submitted for projects that can start in September 2020. The deadline for this is 1 November 2019 at 12:00, with a deadline for pre-registration on 1 October 2019. Read more about the incentive scheme here.
