Oxford-Princeton Research Partnership
The Oxford-Princeton Research Partnership, established in 2001, supports academic research collaborations for faculty and graduate students, as well as undergraduate student exchanges, between the University of Oxford and Princeton University.
Since the partnership's inception, more than 35 joint research projects have been approved for fixed-term seed funding, including collaborations on topics such as: the history of the book; materials science; astrophysics; bio-inorganic chemistry; stone conservation; mathematics; environmental technology; philology in early modern Asia; transmission of infectious diseases; nanotechnology and semiconductor physics; genomics and bioinformatics; philosophy of physics; ethnic, racial and religious segregation in the United States and the United Kingdom; closed-loop quantum control; and scripture and state.
The partnership is currently being jointly evaluated, and the next call for proposals will not take place before fall 2009. For more information, faculty should e-mail Diana Davies, associate provost for international initiatives, or call (609) 258-2560. For information about the graduate student exchange aspect of research partnerships, students should visit http://gradschool.princeton.edu/academics/exchange/oxford/ or contact associate dean of the Graduate School David N. Redman, 113 Clio Hall, (609) 258-3902. Oxford students will find a link to the visiting exchange student application on the site above. Undergraduate students may contact the Study Abroad Program.
