The Ratiu Foundation & University of Kent Awards were inaugurated in 2007, in order to mark Romania's accession to the EU. The success of the 2007 programme made the initiators decide to continue this scheme, thus helping Romanian scientists to develop expertise in specialist areas.
The Ratiu Foundation was established in London in 1979 by Ion and Elisabeth Ratiu. Through its scholarships, the Foundation enables talented Romanian graduates and professionals - domiciled in Romania at the time of application - to gain skills in the UK which they can adapt and apply back home in Romania.
