- Technical University of Munich (TUM), Germany
- Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India
- Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, Mumbai, India
- Karolinska Institute, Sweden

The deadline for applications is Wednesday 27 November.
Financial support for this scheme is provided in part by the College’s 2024-25 Turing Scheme award.
For the 2024/25 academic year, the International Relations Office will provide top up funding equal to the cost-of-living grant provided by the Turing scheme grant to help cover more of the overall costs. Enhanced funding is also available for those who meet the necessary criteria.
