Research Mobility Programme
As part of the membership of the Worldwide Universities Network鈥 the University operates the Research Mobility Programme (RMP). The RMP offers early career researchers (senior PGRs鈥 postdocs and junior faculty) the opportunity to visit one of the international WUN partners in Europe, North America, South East Asia and Australia to establish and cultivate research links at an institutional and individual level.
Well kept secret
Since the programme began in 2001, Southampton alone has made nearly 100 awards and many former awardees credit the programme with having had a significant impact on their research and on their career development in an international context. One recent awardee described their visit as the 鈥渂est decision of [his] PhD鈥, another as a 鈥渢remendous opportunity鈥 and yet the programme remains something of a well kept secret.
