Funding Opportunities at Real Colegio Complutense at Harvard University (RCCHU)

RCC at Harvard University (RCCHU) funding opportunities is a cornerstone in university policies and aims to support those Spanish or European citizens candidates interested in pursuing either studies or research at Harvard University. RCCHU’s mission is, among other aspects, to support faculty, researchers and students to come to Harvard, a mission accomplished by funding proposals for research and education.

This microsite provides information on all the funding opportunities available for faculty, researchers and students wiling to come to Harvard from the RCCHU partners universities to do research or study at this University. Every year, RCCHU hosts scholars and students to collaborate with the faculty of Harvard University and to carry out their research projects or studies.

The delegates of the RCCHU partners universities are the coordinators and guarantors of all RCCHU funding proposals. It is the delegates' mission to evaluate and endorse the applications for the different RCCHU programs, supporting the candidates in all the necessary procedures.
