Maastricht Young Academy projects
What do we do at Maastricht Young Academy (MYA)? We provide policy advice, collaborate on events, and contribute to the most important discussions facing young academics at our university. Additionally, our members participate in one or more of our ongoing projects. Usually, these projects are initiated by members. We also form teams in case of time-sensitive topics at Maastricht University (UM). Below you will find a selection of the projects that are currently running.

A conversation series featuring personal narratives of becoming and being a researcher.
Interdisciplinary Grant
