RENKEI is an initiative of six Japanese Universities, six UK Universities and the British Council Japan.
The role of RENKEI is to offer a common platform for prestigious Japanese and UK universities to come together, along with representatives of industry, to develop collaborations and exchange knowledge in the fields of Technology, Student mobility and Universities’ social engagement.
The University of Southampton (UK) and Tohoku University (Japan) collaborated jointly in the development of two schools partially funded by the British Council UK that centre on Young Scholars Addressing Global Challenges and cover themes of energy within cities.
Following a successful Summer School held at Tohoku University in September 2014, the linked Spring School event will be held in Southampton from 22 – 29 March 2015.
The topic for this event will be District Energy Supply within Cities with special emphasis on low carbon options for 21st century cities.
If you are interested in applying please do so by 5th March 2015 and send your application to [email protected].
For information about the programme and the application process please visit the event’s webpage or contact visit Leo Bourikas for an informal chat (Building 25, Rm 2005, Highfield Campus, E: [email protected]).
We look forward to hearing from you!
