Have your voice heard across Europe!

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 12:07:14 GMT

The IATL Student Research Support team is partnering with an Erasmus+ funded project on Undergraduate Research in Europe — the same initiative helping to launch European versions of our popular Posters in Parliament event, leading up to a Posters in Brussels showcase later this year.

As part of this project, a team led by Humboldt University in Berlin is exploring how undergraduate students across Europe (including the UK and Ireland) perceive research, researchers, and civic engagement. This is a chance for ��TV students to make sure your perspectives shape this international study.

If you’d like to help ensure ��TV voices are represented, please take a few minutes to complete this short survey: https://umfrage.hu-berlin.de/index.php/969586?lang=en

Your contribution really does make a difference — and it only takes a moment! The survey is currently open until midday on 31st March.
