Planning to study abroad? Start with the country, not the university. For each of 35 countries we have gathered what you would otherwise look for on a dozen different websites: what the universities are like, how admission works, what studying and living cost, where to look for scholarships and whether you can work while you study. With links to official sources.

New articles every week about EU-funded research projects, written for students. Every article ends with a short quiz – check what you remember.
Smallholder farmers have to grow as much food as possible on very little land, while the weather becomes more extreme and harder to predict. Synthetic pesticides help, but they also harm ecosystems and human health. The EU-funded UPSCALE project tested whether plants themselves can protect maize from pests, and its team carried out more than 150 interviews with farmers and experts along the way – and at the end you can check whether there is room for nature in your own everyday choices.
A lost fishing net does not simply disappear on the seabed. According to expert estimates, abandoned, lost or discarded fishing gear makes up around 10% of all marine litter. The European NETTAG+ project, coordinated by researchers at the University of Porto, tackles it from several angles at once: workshops for fishers, acoustic tags for gear, sonar combined with artificial intelligence and underwater robots — and at the end you can check how much responsibility for the sea there is in your own habits.
A pill that checks how your gut is doing, then simply gets digested like a meal, sounds like science fiction. Yet the EU-supported ELFO project, run at the Italian Institute of Technology from 2020 to 2025, built exactly this kind of electronics from honey, toothpaste pigment, seaweed and red cabbage juice. The aim is safer, more sustainable devices that could one day replace some invasive procedures — and at the end you can check whether you would trust a pill with a sensor.
