International Credit Mobility: cooperation between Czech Republic and South Africa

The International Credit Mobility Project supports the mobilities of students and teaching staff amongst the project partners in the Czech Republic and South Africa. The main project partners are the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague (CZU), the University of Pretoria (UP), and the Tshwane University of Technology (TUT). The objective of these mobilities is focused on the exchange of teaching staff and Ph.D. students between these two partner institutions. 

Duration of the Project: 2022-2025 

Why apply? 

Participants will be provided with the opportunity to expand their professional network, skills, and research while young scientists will be exposed to different research teams, research techniques and data collection areas which may aid in the completion of their postgraduate degrees. The students will not only be able to develop their research skills but also establish new contacts for future collaborations and research possibilities as young scientists.
