Swiss Knowledge Network with outposts in:
Swissnex Shanghai, Switzerland's outpost for science, technology and culture in China, is an initiative of the Swiss State Secretariat for Education and Research of the Ministry of Home Affairs and the Swiss Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Similar institutions are located in Boston, San Francisco and Singapore. Our goal is to fully exploit the potential of cooperation between Switzerland and the respective host countries in the fields of higher education, research, technology, innovation and culture and to promote Switzerland as a leading country in those domains.
 

Currently, funding for the following types of collaboration is available:

·         Joint research projects (JRP)

·         Institutional partnerships (IP)

·         Faculty/Research staff exchange grants (FE)

·         Student exchange grants (SE)

 

While grants for JRP are larger awards intended for intensive, long-term collaborations, grants for IP, FE and SE are designed with flexibility in mind to encourage increased cross-cultural contact between faculty/students.
