- we facilitate the acquisition of foreign partners for projects coordinated by Lodz University of Technology
- we pass on the offer of participation in projects submitted to the ICC by foreign partners to the relevant units of TUL

From an idea to a project
We would like to encourage you to apply for funds for the implementation of your own educational projects in cooperation with foreign institutions.
- Before preparing a project, it is worth to familiarize yourself with information about available sources of financing, i.e. programmes and funds (for more information, see the section Educational programmes and funds).
- If you have an idea for a project, we invite you to contact the Section, together we will search for a suitable program and call for proposals.
- An idea for a project usually results from the fact that a problem or need has been identified. The project, its objectives, activities and planned results are the answer to these identified problems and needs.
- At this stage, it is worth answering the question why the project should be implemented jointly by a consortium of universities and institutions from different countries. Were the common problems and needs of the partner institutions identified? Will the knowledge and experience of the partner institutions allow to find common solutions? Will the joint solutions developed within the consortium be able to be used by others? How will the project contribute to greater cooperation between partners?
- It is worthwhile to prepare a description of the initial concept of the project in order to carry out further work on its scope in a wider group (Initial project proposal form)
- If you wish the Section to verify the possibility of acquiring external funds for the project or to help with its preparation, please send the project card to the Section by e-mail or make an appointment for a meeting at which we will jointly discuss the concept of the project.
- It is also worthwhile to prepare a short description of the project concept in English, which can be sent to the selected partner institutions/universities in order to invite them to a consortium and further work on the details of the project concept (Project concept note).
If you need support, please contact us: tel. (42) 638 38 73 (or 72).
We will help you at every stage of the preparation of your application. The sooner you contact us, the better, because good project preparation takes time.
