MARIE CURIE INTERNATIONAL INCOMING FELLOWSHIPS (IIF)


MARIE CURIE INTERNATIONAL INCOMING FELLOWSHIPS (IIF) Identifier: FP7-PEOPLE-2012-IIF

International Incoming Fellowships are designed to give researchers from outside of Europe an opportunity to work on research projects in Europe. This helps to develop research cooperation between Europe and other parts of the world to everybody’s benefit.

International Incoming Fellowships are directed exclusively at experienced researchers, namely those who either:

1.    have at least 4 years of research experience (full-time equivalent) after obtaining the degree which would formally entitle them to embark on a doctorate either in the country in which the degree was obtained or in the country in which the research will be carried out; or
2.    are already in possession of a doctoral degree (PhD).

All Marie Curie Actions have a bottom-up approach, i.e. all fields of research of interest to the European Union are eligible for funding. All research carried out must respect fundamental ethics principles (see also the Ethics part of the Guide for Applicants).

The time limit to fulfill one of these conditions is the deadline for proposal submission of the relevant call.

The required research experience does not include breaks during the research career.

Deadline:  16 August 2012 at 17:00:00 (Brussels local time)

Budget: € 40 000 000
