Forum 1: Call for Proposals Nuffic - CAPES 2010/2
Nuffic, the Netherlands organization for international cooperation in higher education, and CAPES, the Brazilian Federal Agency for Support and Evaluation of Postgraduate Education, open together a second Call for Proposals for the realization of joint research projects between Dutch higher education institutions and Brazilian higher education institutions (HEI).
Focus: Cooperation in the areas of Biological Sciences, Engineering, Medical Sciences (Health Sciences), Agricultural Sciences, Applied Social Sciences, Humanities and Arts. The cooperation between Nuffic and CAPES previsions scientific exchange between the Dutch and Brazilian HEI and the formation of high level human resources in both countries.
