Call for applications to free of charge Master Thesis Training

Master Thesis Training 2026

This free of charge event is an opportunity for students to gain additional supervision from an expert, expand their presentation and research skills, as well as develop connections with students from all around the Baltic Sea Region.

The event provides a chance for master's students at BUP participating universities to come together in an interdisciplinary and intercultural environment within the sphere of sustainability science.

The fifth edition of the Master Thesis Training (MTT) will take place on 14-17 April 2026 in Uppsala.

For this edition, students will have the opportunity to choose their supervisor. A list of potential supervisors, including their background, experience, and research interests, can be found on the Master Thesis Training event page. Students are invited to select their preferred supervisors in the application form. The organisers will then assign supervisors based on availability, demand, and other internal factors.

The event will accept participants from BUP participating universities who are studying towards a master's degree and are working on their thesis during the spring term of 2026. The content of the thesis should be related to sustainability science and include a clear connection to the Baltic Sea Region.

The Master Thesis Training will be held mainly on-site in Uppsala. A limited number of online participation spots will be available for students who are unable to travel for exceptional reasons (e.g. priority for online participation will be given to Ukrainian male students who can't travel).

The deadline to apply is 8 February 2026, 23:59 (CET).
