New articles every week about EU-funded research projects, written for students. Every article ends with a short quiz – check what you remember.

What can herders from 10 000 years ago teach us about climate change? + test

Heat, drought and shrinking water supplies are not just problems of our time. Herders in the Levant faced similar challenges more than 10 000 years ago. The EU-funded ICARHUS project set out to learn how they managed their herds, using a method that reads proteins preserved in ancient animal remains. It turns out that the age and sex of goats and sheep can say a lot about the climate of the past – and at the end you can find out whether there is a Stone Age herder in you.

Aircraft emissions start on the ground: how digital twins make aircraft parts last longer + test

Aviation’s environmental impact is not only about emissions in the air but also about waste: retired aircraft, expired materials and disposed parts. The EU-funded GENEX project looked for ways to make aircraft components last longer. The team combined recyclable composites, sensors feeding a digital twin and digitally assisted repairs – and at the end, you can check how well you look after your own things.

The fluid that splits sunlight: how NANOSPLIT turns the sun into electricity and heat + test

Solar cells have a weak spot: the stronger the sunshine, the hotter they get, and hot cells lose efficiency. The EU-funded NANOSPLIT project found a way around it – hybrid nanofluids made of zinc oxide sheets and gold nanoparticles that work as intelligent light filters. Part of the sunlight is turned into electricity, while the rest becomes useful heat for hot water or space heating – and at the end, you can check how you use energy yourself.

5. Investing in language
Some individuals learn a language for purely practical purposes. 'I learnt French for strictly professional reason sand as a means of communication with the inhabitants of the country I live in,' explains Angel, a Bulgarian IT specialist who lives in Belgium.
7. Be concrete, not abstract
Concrete messages are clear — abstract language can be vague and off-putting. Too much abstract language might even lead your reader to think either that you don’t know what you are writing about or that your motives for writing are suspect.
1. Erasmus+ - Introduction
Erasmus+ is a unique programme which seeks to boost the job prospects and personal development of young people, as well as help our education, training and youth systems deliver teaching and learning that gives people the skills they need in today's labour market and society, as well as in the future.
Preparing for an interview
Interview culture is as varied as the number of companies and organisations on the market. Find out as much as possible about the process in advance. Do you need to take documents, prepare a presentation or undertake psychometric, practical or other tests as part of the interview? How long will the process take and who are you likely to meet?
