TU Dublin is pleased to announce the creation of a fund that will provide assistance to researchers fleeing crisis situations. Across the World, researchers face threats to their life, their freedom, and their careers in research. Often, they are forced to flee their home country because of such threats, and actively seek opportunities to restart their work in a supportive university environment.

The ongoing war resulting from the invasion of Ukraine by the government of the Russian Federation, has brought support for fleeing researchers into focus for many of us in the TU Dublin community.  This has motivated us to initiate a long term fund that can be used for support of researchers fleeing crises anywhere in the World.

The initial focus of the fund will be on PhD students of any nationality, previously registered in a Ukrainian university, who are fleeing the war in Ukraine. The intention is to support a small number of continuing PhD students, who would register as TU Dublin students and will be provided with:

Fully supported tuition fees
A stipend to cover living costs for the remainder of their time registered as a TU Dublin PhD student
Research costs
Assistance in settling into life in Dublin
Pastoral supports, including availability of counselling

If you would like to make an application please complete this short form in the first instance.
