  1. Synergiesbetween ERA and EHEA ChancesforUniversities Peter van der Hijden, independent expert Brussels International Staff Training Seminar, Radboud University Nijmegen, 16 May 2014

  2. Why?

  3. We need More Knowledge Intensive Economies

  4. Underperformance, not enough… Young People Graduate Adults Know University From Inside Research Discoveries Reach Markets Researchers Jobs at SMEs World Class Universities

  5. Too few researchers per 1000 labour force EU 6 US 9 Japan 11

  6. Too few researchers in the private sector • EU 46% • Japan 68% • US 79%

  7. Investment in R&D is part of the solution to exit from the economic crises

  8. Instruments Partnerships Programmes Policies

  9. Partnerships Member States European Commission Stakeholder Organisations Experts, Networks, Pilots

  10. Open Method of Coordination (EU) Stocktaking (Bologna) Objectives Indicators Benchmarks Reporting (Scorecards)

  11. European Semester National Reform Programmes Country-specific Recommendations

  12. Programmes Horizon 2020 Erasmus+ European Structural and Investment Funds

  13. Horizon 2020 Excellent Science Industrial Leadership Societal Challenges

  14. Europe 2020 priorities European Research Area International cooperation Shared objectives and principles Common rules, toolkit of funding schemes Tackling Societal Challenges • Health, demographic change and wellbeing • Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research and the bio-based economy • Secure, clean and efficient energy • Smart, green and integrated transport • Climate action & Resource Efficiency including Raw Materials • Inclusive, innovative and secure societies Industrial Leadership and Competitive Frameworks • Leadership in enabling and industrial technologies (ICT, nano, materials, bio, manufacturing, space) • Access to risk finance • Innovation in SMEs Excellent Science Base • European Research Council • Future and Emerging Technologies • Marie Curie actions on skills, training and career development • Research infrastructures Supporting the objectives: European Institute for Innovation and Technology Joint Research Centre Dissemination & knowledge transfer Simplified access

  15. Combine Programmes Erasmus+ (mobility, including work placements, Strategic Partnerships of HEIs on curricula, Knowledge Alliances with companies) Horizon 2020 European Structural and Investment Funds (Smart Specialisation Strategies with obligatory focus on innovation: training, incl. researchers, campuses and labs, networking, mobility cross-sectors, knowledge tranfer, incubators spin-offs en start-ups)

  16. Policies Europe 2020 Strategy European Research Area European Higher Education Area

  17. Europe 2020 strategy Smart, Sustainable and Inclusive growth Headline targets, including 3% of GDP investment in R&D and 40 % tertiairy or equivalent graduates 7 Flagship Initiatives

  18. Seven Flagship Initiatives 1. Innovation Union 2. Youth on the Move 3. A Digital Agenda for Europe 4. Resource Efficient Europe 5. Industrial Policy for Globalisation 6. An Agenda for New Skills and Jobs 7. European Platform Against Poverty

  19. Youth on the Move Education & Training 2020 Erasmus for All Bologna (EHEA)

  20. Bologna Action Lines • 1) Tree Cycles • 2) Quality Assurance 3) Recognition (Lisbon Convention, ENIC-NARIC,ECTS/DS) • 4) Social Dimension (Access/ Employability ) • 5) International Dimension

  21. Innovation Union 34 commitments setting boundary conditions, Including: Standardisation, public procurement and venture capital, a unified European patent Quality of doctoral training and skills mix International attractiveness and careers Completing the European Research Area

  22. European Research AreaTreaty (Article 179) "in which, researchers, scientific knowledge and technology will circulate freely" [like a single market]

  23. ERA Priorities • 1) More effective national research • 2) Cooperation and Competition 3) An Open Labour Market for Researchers • 4) Gender Equality • 5) Circulation of Knowledge

  24. An Open Labour Market for Researchers • Open recruitment • Acces to and portability of grants • Euraxess personalised information • Structured doctoral training • Career development • Industry Acadeæmia cooperation • 7) Recognition of degrees • Social security & pensions • 8) Visas and permits

  25. 10 dossiers • EURAXESS • Charter & Code – HR peer review • Research Careers • Doctoral Training • The New Scientific Visa • European Pension Fund • ERA in Horizon • Closing the divide • U-Multirank • Reporting

  26. EURAXESS Portal & 200+ Centers Jobs (including Naturejobs) Services Rights Links (offices in all continents)

  27. Charter & Code - HR Strategy Peer Review Logo

  28. European Framework for Research Careers R1 - First Stage Researcher R2 - Recognised Researcher R3 - Established Researcher R4 - Leading Researcher

  29. Principles forInnovative Doctoral Training • 1) Research Excellence • 2) Attractive Institutional Environment • 3) Interdisciplinary Research Options • 4) Exposure to industry and other relevant • employment sectors • 5) International networking • 6) Transferable skills training • 7) Quality Assurance

  30. In short: Doctoral Training should become:« Triple i » • International • Interdisciplinary • Intersectoral

  31. The New 'Scientific Visa' Facilitates the procedure of admitting third-country nationals for the purpose of research, studies, pupil exchange, remunerated and unremunerated training, voluntary service and au pairing. Building on the existing Directives 2005/71/EC and 2004/114/EC.

  32. More Rights For 3C Nationals • Equal status to that of nationals in terms of pay and working conditions, access to goods and services, recognition of professional qualifications and social security • A residence permit may be granted to family members for the duration of the researcher’s residence permit. Family members will be allowed to work • The researcher can take up a teaching position • Upon finalisation of their research project researchers will be allowed to remain in the Member State to look for work for a period of 12 months • You Can Move Around (up to 6 months without a new hosting agreement)

  33. Pension Solutions Smoother cooperation of national funds (long term solution for all) European Pension Fund for Researchers (for ambitious employers of researchers)

  34. ERA in Horizon 2020 Cross-cutting issues Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions ERA Chairs Institutions with Innovative concepts

  35. Closing the Divide in Research and Innovation • Structural Funds • Smart Specialisation Strategies • Horizon 2020 • Twinning, Teaming, ERA Chairs

  36. U-Multirank Multi-dimensional User-driven International Including Research Institutes

  37. Recommendations • 1) Match Priorities • 2) Combine programmes • 3) Get involved in nationaland European fora

  38. THANK YOU!
