Virtual Studies Call for Pooling Courses 2026

UniPID invites teachers and lecturers responsible for existing courses at their home universities to contribute to and expand the themes and offerings of UniPID's Virtual Studies programme.

What does pooling courses involve? The method of pooling existing courses offered by UniPID’s member universities contributes to the idea of sharing expertise in topics aligned with UniPID’s mission, avoiding overlap, and expanding the number of courses available in UniPID Virtual Studies. UniPID’s member university teachers may propose well-established courses that are already included in degree programmes of the member universities and do not require additional funding to be added to the UniPID Virtual Studies Programme.

IMPORTANT: Please note that this year UniPID will not be offering funding for virtual courses through the regular call for course proposals. Instead, the only opportunity to offer a UniPID course is through the pooling option.

The submission period for proposals has recently been extended until 28 January 2026. The UniPID Board makes the final decision on the funding, and the results will be announced by the end of March 2026 at the latest.

Online Info-Session. The Coordination Unit hosted an online info session where the 2026 call for pooling courses was explained in detail, and participants had the opportunity to ask questions to help prepare their submissions. Info session recording and material is available here.
