The University of Amsterdam (UvA) is delighted to host the 9th U21 Undergraduate Research Conference from 8 to 12 July 2013 with the theme “Urban Challenges: builing healthy, smart and & creative cities for the future”. More than half of the world’s population now lives in large urban areas and this number will increase in the years to come. The growth of the urban population and the dynamic nature of cities around the world give rise to an abundance of interesting research questions and challenges that are of particular interest for the future generation of researchers. Key issues for modern cities range from public health, logistics, safety, governance, migration, diversity and cultural dynamics to design and creativity.

The conference will provide the opportunity for three outstanding undergraduate or honours students from UNSW to showcase their research to an international audience of fellow students and staff.

UNSW students who wish to apply must complete the Global Education Application Form and return it to advisor4globaled@unsw.edu.au no later than Sunday March 10th 2013. Selected students will receive partial scholarships to support their stay in Amsterdam.
