Is this course right for me?

Target Audience: Research-Active Staff

The course will offer detailed insight into key matters for the presentation of a successful application to the EU €95.5bn Horizon Europe programme (2021-2027).  Horizon Europe offers a broad range of funding for research of varying types and subjects, and is extremely competitive.  Writing an application that is likely to be successful requires in-depth knowledge and intelligence in relation to a number of key matters that include: include: quality, impact and implementation of research; open science; gender equality; integration with UN Sustainable Development Goals; security; supervision of research trainees; consortium composition; Do No Significant Harm principle, and, costing.  In such respect, with the main focus on the international collaborative projects funded under Pillar 2 of Horizon Europe, the session will cover in detail what is needed in order to secure maximum marks of evaluators against the programme’s key criteria for the award of projects.

Course Outcomes/ Objectives;

At the end of the session, you will have an appreciation of the key essentials to be addressed in presenting an application for funding to Horizon Europe, thereby increasing your chances of success in your submissions to the programme between now and 2027.
