As part of the ENHANCE+ project, the ENHANCE Future Competencies team is launching the Future Competencies Scale-Up Call, a top-up funding round open to academics, students and doctoral candidates at all ENHANCE partner universities. This call invites teams who already run an online, hybrid, or COIL (Collaborative Online International Learning) course to scale it up: opening it across the Alliance and enriching it through collaboration with at least one other partner university.
Selected offers will receive up to €3,000 in ENHANCE+ funding, plus a possible top-up of up to €3,000 from our valued ENHANCE member TU Delft, depending on the number of partner universities involved and the offer's budget needs.
To be eligible, an offer must:
Involve at least two ENHANCE partner universities
Already exist and be ready to scale up (this call does not fund new course development)
Be delivered in online, hybrid, or COIL format — no Erasmus BIPs or face-to-face-only formats
Be open to bachelor and/or master students
Be delivered in English, with no or minimal entry requirements
Provide ECTS
Align with our alliance's strategy on technical education with a sustainability perspective, and with the ETH Competence Framework, which ENHANCE recognises as a powerful assessment matrix when shaping future-ready education
Applicants are responsible for arranging their own collaboration with a partner university before applying.
Proposals will be scored by a selection committee made up of the Future Competencies Lead, ENHANCE+ Cluster 2 representatives, and TU Delft's ENHANCE Core Officer. Successful applicants will be notified by 5 October 2026, with funding transferred that same month and offers running for Spring Term 2027.
Full details, eligibility criteria, and the online application form are available for download below.
