European Research & Innovation Office

Our European Research and Innovation Office (ERIO) works to keep UCL at the forefront of European collaboration in research and innovation. UCL was a leading participant throughout the European Union's €79 billion "Horizon 2020" funding programme, and has regained full access to its €93 billion successor, "Horizon Europe".
