Would You Like to Win One of Two €2,500 Travel Grants to Help with Your Research?

The Higher Education Authority and the Irish Independent are inviting research students in any discipline to make a short submission on the difference that their research makes to a particular aspect of Irish life, to the country as a whole or indeed, internationally.

The six researchers, who in the opinion of an independent adjudication panel, have put forward the most innovative or challenging ideas will be invited to present how their research is making an impact at a public event at The Helix at Dublin City University on Thursday 23rd April. They will have a maximum of ten minutes to make the presentation, followed by a brief question and answer session with an expert panel.

Two awards of €2,500 sponsored by the Irish Independent will be made at the end of the evening, one by the expert panel and the other by a vote of second level students who will form part of the audience.

If you would like to enter this competition, then before 5pm on Friday 3rd of April, make your submission to -

"Making An Impact",
Higher Education Authority,
Brooklawn House,
Shelbourne Road,
Dublin 4
