  1. Peter Kopkáš Banská Bystrica 17. máj 2012 FP7 – PEOPLEMarie Curie actions

  2. Basics • The Marie Curie Actions are the People Programme of the 7th Framework Programme • They fund all the domains of research (bottom-up approach) • They support the mobility of researchers of all nationalities • The applications are done through competitive calls for proposals • The proposals evaluation is done by independent experts

  3. The Marie Curie Actions support 3 of the 7 flagship initiatives of the Europe 2020 strategy for smart/sustainable/inclusive growth: • Innovation Union • 1 million new research jobs needed • Attract and train young people to become researchers • Quality doctoral trainings, with businesses involvement • Offer internationally competitive research careers • Attractive employment conditions and gender balance • Youth on the move • Mobility of researchers across countries, disciplines & sectors • An agenda for new skills and jobs • Better skills for better jobs

  4. Cooperation : € 32 413 Ideas : € 7510 Collaborative research 10 thematic areas Frontier Research ERC Marie Curie Actions Research Capacity People : € 4750 Capacities : €4097 JRC : € 1751 Euratom : € 2751 Nuclear research FP7 overview (2007-2013) FP7 breakdown (€ million) FP6 (2002-2006)Marie Curie Actions€1580 million Evolution of annual budget

  5. Bottom-up approach Research topics are chosen freely by applicants Budget distribution by scientific panel (Marie Curie Actions 2007-2011) 2007-2011 • EU contribution:~ €2 billion • Research projects funded:> 5000

  6. Marie Curie Actions Initial training Initial Training Networks (ITN) Life-long training and career development Intra-European Fellowships (IEF) / Career Integration Grants (CIG) Co-funding of regional, national and international programmes (COFUND) Industry dimension Industry-Academia Partnerships and Pathways (IAPP) International dimension Outgoing & Incoming International Fellowships (IIF & IOF); International Research Staff Exchange Scheme (IRSES) Policy support actions Researchers’ Night; EURAXESS

  7. Eligible researchers Applicants Research funding bodies Individual researchers Industry/Research Institutions More experienced Researchers MER > 10 years IEF OIF IIF CIG COFUND Experienced Researchers ER > 4 years or PhD IAPP IRSES ITN Early Stage Researchers ESR < 4 years

  8. People programme = Marie Curie Actions From pure mobility actions to a dedicated programmefor structuring training, mobility and career development Objectives Strengthen the human potential in R&D in Europe Stimulate people to enter into the profession of researcher Encourage researchers to stay in Europe Attract researchers from around the world Target researchers at any stage of their careers MCA - objectives

  9. Main features of all MCA: Research project Mobility aspect MCA – main features

  10. Host-driven actions:Partners’ consortia prepare proposal and recruit / second researchers ITN IAPP IRSES

  11. Initial Training Network ITN

  12. ITN Features ITN Objectives To improve career perspectives of researchers at the earlier stages of their careers by making research careers more attractive to young people. To add to the employability of the recruited researchers through exposure to both academia and enterprise. To eliminatecultural and other barriers to mobility. Tostructure research training capacity through international networking To offer a joint research training programme

  13. Initial Training Networks ITN Organizations Participants: full network partners and signatories to the grant agreement. Recruit researchers and receive funding (“beneficiaries” or “level 1”) Associated Partners: do not recruit researchers and do not receive funding. Provide transferable skills training and/or secondment opportunities (“level 2”) Researchers Early Stage Researcher (ESR): at the time of recruitment by the host organisation, must be in the first 4 years of their research careers (full-time equivalent), and not yet have been awarded a doctoral degree Experienced Researcher (ER): at the time of recruitment, more than four years research experience (or doctoral degree), but less than five years of research experience
