Research exchanges
This modality is set up within the frame of 'students-as-researchers', which aims to engage our students with our international partners, so they can nurture their research qualities in cross-cultural environments, developing critical thinking, cultural competence, that inspires creativity and co-creation with peers from other institutions. We seek to promote a learning environment which encourages discussion and creative solutions for the global challenges.

2022
The ‘Hearing New Voices of Venezuelan Migrant Women’ project were run by Dr. Katie Brown and Dr. Miguel Vásquez, funded by the European Network Fund grant from the University of Exeter. It was a ‘students-as-researchers’ project where six students from the University of Exeter and six students from Universidad Complutense de Madrid worked together to carry out, transcribe and translate interviews with young Venezuelan women who have migrated and either write or publish poetry. The interviewees were chosen to cover migration to different parts of the world: Europe, the USA and Latin America
