Description
This award supports U.S. scholars to conduct research for 4 to 12 months at LUT University’s Electric Mobility Research Center (EMRC) in Finland. The program is designed to foster multidisciplinary research in electric mobility and related themes, such as efficient electronics, data-driven business, industry competitiveness, customer behavior, and the future of electric mobility. Grantees are encouraged to collaborate closely with EMRC, host departments, and industry partners (notably Kempower), and may also have opportunities to lecture at LUT’s Schools of Business, Energy Systems, or Engineering Science. The award aims to advance knowledge in e-mobility, promote international academic exchange, and strengthen U.S.–Finland research ties.
