12 Marie Sklodowska Curie Doctoral Networks for the University of Groningen 

The University of Groningen has achieved very good results in the last round of Marie Sklodowska Curie Doctoral Networks. 12 projects have been funded and 13 PIs are involved as coordinators (4), beneficiaries (7), and associated (2). Moreover, 3 other projects have been placed on the reserve list.

MSCA Doctoral Networks implement doctoral programmes, by partnerships of universities, research institutions and infrastructures, businesses including SMEs, and other socio-economic actors from different countries across Europe and beyond. These doctoral programmes have to respond to well-identified needs in various research and innovation areas, expose the researchers to the academic and non-academic sectors, and offer research training, as well as transferable skills and competences relevant for innovation and long-term employability.

The next call for MSCA Doctoral Networks will open in May 2025.

An internal training will be organised in June. If you need further information, please contact your Faculty Funding Officer  and Gema Ocana.
