HR&M budget• „Focussing and Integrating” 13 345 M Euro

• „Structuring ERA” 2 606 M Euro

Research and Innovation 290 M Euro

Human Resources and Mobility 1 580 M Euro

HR&M - 9% of the overall 6PR budgetHR&M - 9% of the overall 6PR budget



The overall strategic objective of the HR&M

is to provide broad support for the development of abundant and dynamic world-class

human resources in the European research system:

development and transfer of research competencies widening of researchers’ career prospects promotion of excellence



Marie Curie Actions – general introductionMarie Curie Actions – general introduction

“Marie Curie” – a common identity for all the actions within HR&M

activity directed towards training and mobility of researchers

12 different Marie Curie actions

most of the actions open to third country nationals and institutions

enhanced funding: FP5-1 050 M Euro FP6-1 580 M Euro

a “bottom-up” approach - no need to address FP6 priorities, field of research chosen freely by the applicants



Marie Curie Actions – participants/fellowsMarie Curie Actions – participants/fellows

• participant (a host institution/a contractor to EC)

any organization active in research or research training (university, national or international research institute, commercial enterprise, etc.)

• researcher (a fellow)Early-stage researcher : in the first 4 years of their research activity, including the period of research training (at least post-graduate level)

Experienced researchers: - at least 4 years of research experience oror

- in possession of the doctoral degree



Marie Curie Actions – participating statesMarie Curie Actions – participating states

EU Member States:Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Spain, Netherlands, Ireland, Luxembourg, Germany, Portugal, Sweden, United Kingdom, Italy

Associated States:

Candidate Countries: Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Hungary, Turkey

Other associated states: Iceland, Izrael, Liechtenstein, Norway

Third Countries: participate in selected actions only

All other states, including (for the present calls) Switzerland



Marie Curie Actions – mobility rulesMarie Curie Actions – mobility rules• researchers must be nationals of a state other than that of the host organization

•researchers may not have worked/studied (etc.) in the country of the host organization for more than 12 months in the 3 years prior to the start date

•third country researchers cannot in general carry out their transnational mobility in third countries

• a third country researcher who has legally worked/studied (etc.) for at least 4 of the last 5 years in Member/Associated State is treated as a national of that state

I I MC Host-driven actionsMC Host-driven actions

Support for research networks, research institutions or enterprises in their

schemes for transnational training and mobility of researchers or

development/transfer of their competencies. Institution applies for funding,

signs a contract with the EC and it is then obliged to advertise their vacant

fellow positions. Up to 30% of funded researcher-months can be used

for third country nationals.

(1) Marie Curie Research Training Network

(2) Marie Curie Host Fellowships for Early Stage Research Training

(3) Marie Curie Host Fellowships for the Transfer of Knowledge

(4) Marie Curie Conferences and Training Courses




(1) Training Networks(1) Training Networks

support for research teams in the context of a well-defined collaborative project

main idea: cohesive but flexible framework for the training and development of early stage researchers

participants: at least 3 MS or AS (of which 2 must be MS or CC), open to third country institutions

contract: up to 4 years

fellowships: 3 – 36 months open to third country researchers min. 65% of total project budget must be dedicated to the hosted

fellows




(2) Early Stage Research Training(2) Early Stage Research Training

targeted at higher education and research institutions, to reinforce their training capability

main idea: an offer of structured training for early stage researchers, typically within a framework of doctoral studies, including:- acquisition of specific scientific competencies- complementary skills: management, ethics, communication, etc.

participants: - single host – third country institutions not funded- multi-partner hosts – at least 3MS or AS, open to third countries

contract: up to 4 years fellowships: 3-36 months open to third country researchers




(3) Transfer of Knowledge(3) Transfer of Knowledge

reinforcement of the research potential of host entities with priority given to less-favored regions of EU and to the Candidate Countries (MC Development SchemeMC Development Scheme)

creation and development of real strategic and durable partnerships between the academic world and the world of enterprises (MC Industry-Academia Partnership SchemeMC Industry-Academia Partnership Scheme)

open both to the third country institutions and researchers targeted at experienced researchers contract: up to 4 years fellowships: 2- 24 months




(4) Conferences and Training courses(4) Conferences and Training courses

main idea: to enable junior researchers to benefit from the

experience of leading researchers by supporting specific training

activities (linked to European achievements and interests)

- organization of coherent series of high-level conferences/training courses

- funding of the participation of eligible researchers in large conferences

open to the third country researchers

exceptionally may be open to the third country co-organizers

(1) Marie Curie Incoming International Fellowships(1) Marie Curie Incoming International Fellowships

targeted at third country nationals

(2) Marie Curie Outgoing International Fellowships(2) Marie Curie Outgoing International Fellowships

open to third country institutions (as partners)

(3) Marie Curie Intra-European Fellowships



II II MC Individual - MC Individual -

(1) Incoming International Fellowships(1) Incoming International Fellowships

main idea: to attract top-class third country researchers to work and undertake research training in Europe

host institution: in MS or AS

fellowship: 1 to 2 years

in the case of developing countries or emerging and transition economies, the project may include a phase of reintegration in the researcher’s country of origin



II II MC Individual-MC Individual- (2) Outgoing International Fellowships(2) Outgoing International Fellowships

targeted at experienced researchers from MS and AS

main idea: to work in established third country research centre and widen international research experience

project involves 2 mandatory phases: - phase 1: 1 to 2 years in a third country partner institution (no contract with the EC signed; agreement with the host institution)- phase 2: an immediate reintegration in the host organization of MS or AS (contractor)



III III Excellence Promotion and RecognitionExcellence Promotion and Recognition

(1) Marie Curie Excellence Grants

(2)Marie Curie Chairs (3)Marie Curie Awards



IIIIII Excellence Promotion and Recognition Excellence Promotion and Recognition

(1) Marie Curie Excellence Grants creation and development of European research teams of high

excellence research conducted in MS or AS international teams built up around a researcher with potential to

reach a high level of excellence project cannot be located in an institution where the leader has

worked for more than 1 year no nationality excluded, nonetheless: designed to counteract brain

drain from Europe team leader applies jointly with the host organization contract: should guarantee the necessary autonomy to the team

leader; for up to 4 years



III III Excellence Promotion and RecognitionExcellence Promotion and Recognition(2) Marie Curie Chairs

to attract to European institutions world-class researchers for a period of research and lecturing

no nationality of potential chair holder excluded appointments for 1-3 years chair holder shall give lectures, teach research courses,

supervise research and thesis work, may carry out own research

subject(s) to be taught should be of a leading edge/multi-disciplinary nature and relevant to Europe

chair holder expected to take part in events publicising top-level research or attractiveness of research career
