Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowships: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Find out if you qualify for these international research fellowships and learn about the mobility rules required to secure funding.
This scheme provides funding for experienced researchers to carry out high-level research projects by moving to a new country.
Who it's for
This fellowship is designed for experienced researchers who are looking to move between different countries to advance their work. It is intended for those who have already established themselves in their field and are seeking new international opportunities.
What you get
If successful, you receive a package that covers your salary, the costs associated with conducting your research, and funds to help you with professional networking. These fellowships are designed to support your career progression for a period of one to two years.
What it costs you
To apply, you cannot simply submit an application on your own. You must find a host institution in Europe that is willing to work with you to co-develop your research proposal. This requires significant time and collaboration to build a proposal that meets the requirements of both your research goals and the institution.
The catch to know
There is a strict "mobility rule" you must follow. You are not eligible if you have lived in the country where your host institution is located for more than 12 months during the three years immediately preceding your application.
How to apply
- Find a suitable host institution in Europe.
- Work with your host to develop a detailed research proposal.
- Submit your application through the official online system.
