Una Europa PhD Impact Competition

Are you a doctoral researcher? Is your research related to Future Materials? Do you want to share the impact of your research with others? Then enter the Una Europa PhD Impact Award competition!

Calling all researchers

Researchers are invited to complete a short PhD Impact Award case study template aimed at a non-scientific, non-technical audience.

The case study should outline the impact or potential impact of the research e.g. on society, the economy, the environment, health, education, technology, culture or policy.

For this competition, the research should have a connection to Future Materials as understood in the context of Una Europa. Future Materials encompasses any material anticipated or expected to be developed or to become prominent in the future.

Such materials possess advanced or novel properties, are more sustainable, or offer advantages over currently available materials in specific applications.

Travel and accommodation support will be provided to go to Bologna.

In addition, the winning entries will be published on the Una Europa website.

What is the deadline?

The deadline for entries is midnight on 15 September 2024. The winner(s) will be notified by mid-October and must be available to travel in late November.
