Una Europa Student Project Incubator
This sixth edition of the Una Europa Student Project Incubator is a challenge-based programme. Students from across the Una Europa alliance – a network of 11 universities, including Leiden University – will come together to work together on sustainability issues that are connected to chemistry, its societal impacts, and economic realities.

- Put your academic skills into practice by working on a real-life challenge;
- Attend a high-profile academic conference, network with international students and researchers and take the stage to present your prototype;
- Receive a grant covering travel, accommodation, and conference fees.
Who can apply?
- Bachelor's and master's students, and PhD candidates, at Leiden University and LUMC.
- All academic disciplines are welcome. While the challenges will have a chemistry focus, we’re looking for holistic and interdisciplinary solutions.
- Candidates with at least B2 level English.
- Selected students will receive a grant to cover their conference fee, travel costs and accommodation in Berlin.
