To get a taste of EDUC, you could, for example, start with the course Initiation to Research and Critical Thinking (catalogue.educalliance.eu). In this course, you will meet lecturers from all the EDUC universities while learning about critical thinking and research methods. The course is delivered entirely online and is based on self-study. The workload corresponds to 1 ECTS credit.
If you successfully complete this course, you will be eligible to apply for a EDUC Discovery Internship, that allows you to spend one week visiting a research group or laboratory at one of the other EDUC universities.
This gives you an opportunity to experience what life as a researcher is like and to get to know researchers in your field of study. You will also receive an EDUC grant to help cover some of the costs of travel and accommodation.
