European Connect is a three week research project connecting you with likeminded students from across Europe. You will be matched based upon subject interests and will collaborate towards the completion of a group project and presentation as facilitated by one of our current students at the University of Surrey. You can expect to receive academic feedback on your presentation in addition to invitations to attend exclusive webinars covering topics such as Personal Statements, Student Finance and Student Life.
