The network and information platform for Lower Saxonian higher education institutions comprises more than 40 advisors at universities in Lower Saxony, who aim to facilitate access to European funding opportunities and to promote the international networking of higher education institutions.

The Lower Saxony – Scotland Joint Forum 2022 is less than four months away.
All members of universities in Lower Saxony and Scotland are warmly invited and encouraged to host their own workshop online. The deadline for the submission of workshop proposals is still open until 15 September 2022.

After two successful editions, it is with great pleasure that we announce the third edition of the Lower Saxony – Scotland Joint Forum, taking place on Monday, 21 November 2022 and Tuesday, 22 November 2022 as a hybrid conference.

Since the first Open Call in mid-2021 commenced the initial phase of the Lower Saxony – Scotland Tandem Fellowship Programme, the initiative has proven to be an excellent opportunity for early-career academics to conduct research in a cross-national exchange at the most recognised universities in Lower Saxony and Scotland.
The second Open Call was published in February 2022 and extended the programme for a further round of applications. Today, ECAS is pleased to present the list of new joint project proposals as well as the corresponding researchers who have recently been awarded a fellowship.

For the first time, Leuphana University Lüneburg and the University of Glasgow will offer double degree programmes for students in the Bachelor’s programme “International Business Administration & Entrepreneurship (IBAE)” from the coming winter semester. Selected Master’s students from the Master’s programmes “Management & Data Science”, “Management & Entrepreneurship” and “Management & Sustainable Accounting and Finance” will also have the opportunity to take a double degree.

On Monday, 21 and Tuesday, 22 November 2022, the third edition of the Joint Forum will take place. In partnership with the University of Glasgow and Leuphana University of Lüneburg, the European Centre for Advanced Studies cordially invites you to a dynamic event for building bridges between higher education institutions in Lower Saxony and Scotland.
