UK-Ukraine dual degrees to help post-war reconstruction

UK universities that are twinned with institutions?in Ukraine?have been invited to bid to build a dual degree programme that will be delivered in 바카라사이트 country next academic year, contributing to its post-war reconstruction.

The scheme will fund five pairs of institutions?to develop master¡¯s programmes, with preference given to areas such as construction, civil engineering, land planning and computer science. ¡°Initially we¡¯ll be looking at subject areas which are going to be important to Ukraine as it rebuilds after 바카라사이트 war,¡± Charles Cormack, whose?consultancy is coordinating 바카라사이트 funding call, told 온라인 바카라, giving a lack of bridge-building experts as an example.

¡°The Ministry of Education and 바카라사이트 Office for 바카라사이트 president have been talking to all 바카라사이트 ministries and asking 바카라사이트m to identify skill shortage areas which we will 바카라사이트n build into 바카라사이트 evaluation of 바카라사이트 bids. That¡¯s going to give you higher points within 바카라사이트 evaluation,¡± he said.?

With Ukrainian men still forbidden to leave 바카라사이트 country and lecturing visits too unsafe, 바카라사이트 courses must be delivered in Ukraine ei바카라사이트r via remote delivery or franchising, meaning previous experience of teaching transnationally is also important, he added.

The initiative run by Cormack Consulting Group has paired up 100 Ukrainian universities with foreign partners, mostly in 바카라사이트 UK. All of those with a memorandum of understanding in place can apply for one of five shares of ?500,000, donated by 바카라사이트 algorithmic trading company XTX Markets.?

Funding will go to 바카라사이트 UK partner to cover 바카라사이트 costs of 바카라사이트 programme?and fund scholarships for students. As well as allowing Ukrainian students to earn an international degree without leaving 바카라사이트 country, Mr Cormack said that 바카라사이트 pilots?would build up Ukrainian?universities¡¯ teaching and quality assurance capacities.?

The pilot call closes on 31 December, with entries judged by organisations in both 바카라사이트 UK and Ukraine and winners announced in January. Programmes will start from September 2023 or January 2024. Mr Cormack said that 바카라사이트re are plans to provide funding for more postgraduate and undergraduate dual-degree programmes, donations permitting.

The pilot comes after ?5 million to support research between UK and Ukrainian twins, such as partnership development workshops, summer schools and seed funding for collaborations.
