Applications are open: 2023 American Tour

Travel is back on the agenda! Since 1993, the European Association of Urology (EAU) and the American Urological Association (AUA) have combined forces to offer a unique EAU-AUA International Academic Exchange Programme. Two aspiring urologists have the chance to attain an international perspective on urological medicine through face-to-face interaction and networking with expert colleagues in the United States.

The upcoming 2023 American Tour will provide grants for two EAU members to travel to the United States and attend the American Urological Association annual congress in Chicago, IL, from 28 April to 1 May 2023. Following this, the successful candidates will participate in a two-week educational programme visiting several urology centres in the United States from 2 May to 13 May 2023.

About the programme

The EAU-AUA International Exchange Programme aims to promote international exchange of urological medical skills, expertise and knowledge. It is a reciprocal experience whereby one year European urologists visit the United States and the following year, talented young members of the American faculty have the opportunity to visit reputable institutions in Europe, as well as attend the EAU annual congress.
