Individual Fellowships provide opportunities to experienced researchers of any nationality to acquire and transfer new knowledge and to work on research and innovation in Europe (EU Member States and Horizon 2020 Associated Countries) and beyond. The goal of the MSC-IF program is to enhance the creative and innovative potential of experienced researchers, wishing to diversify their individual competence in terms of skill acquisition through advanced training, international and intersectoral mobility.
Fellowships last from 1-2 years, and can include a secondment period of 3 – 6 months with another organisation in Europe.
The grant provides an allowance to cover living, travel and family costs. In addition, the EU contributes to the training, networking and research costs of the fellow, as well as to the management and indirect costs of the project.
The grant is awarded to the host organisation, usually a university, research centre or a company in Europe.
How to apply:
You submit a research proposal, including your CV. The proposal is written jointly with your chosen host organisation(s). The maximum length of a proposal is 10 pages, excluding the CV of the researcher and the annexes.
A Career Development Plan should be established jointly by the host institution supervisor(s) and the researcher. In addition to research or innovation objectives, this plan comprises the researcher's training and career needs, including training on transferable skills, teaching, planning for publications and participation in conferences.
