Appels à projets et candidatures

The University of Waterloo (UW) and the University of Bordeaux (UBx) are delighted to announce the official launch of their 2025 joint call for proposals to support collaborative seed projects between our campuses. This joint program is the result of a solid partnership that goes back more than a decade with multiple joint funding calls that have nurtured many successful collaborations to date. Both institutions wish to further develop these collaborations with dedicated funds.

This call will provide seed funding for UBx-UW teams, with the goal of building to externally funded projects from various international funding opportunities, such as Horizon Europe, NFRF-International, NSERC Alliance International. This call is encouraging applications in Health-related research and Sustainable Aeronautics, but is also open to other topics.

The expectation is that the proposal objectives will align with the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and have the potential for societal benefit.

Preference will be given to submissions that will lead to the creation of new UBx-UW teams. Submissions from established teams are eligible if they are exploring a new project, with preference given to those that have applied for/received external funding for the previous project.
