Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena (UPCT) in Spain is promoting the Individual Fellowship Marie-Curie Actions (MSCA – IF) under the funding framework Horizon 2020.
What is Horizon2020?
Horizon 2020 is the biggest EU Research and Innovation programme ever with nearly €80 billion of funding available over 7 years (2014 to 2020)

What is MSCA about?
The Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions (MSCA) provide grants for all stages of researchers' careers - be they doctoral candidates or highly experienced researchers - and encourage transnational, intersectoral and interdisciplinary mobility. The MSCA enable research-focused organizations (universities, research centers, and companies) to host talented foreign researchers and to create strategic partnerships with leading institutions worldwide.

What are the advantages for researchers?
Individual Fellowships support the mobility of researchers within and beyond Europe - as well as helping to attract the best foreign researchers to work in the EU. The grant usually covers two years' salary, a mobility allowance, research costs and overheads for the host institution. Individual researchers submit proposals for funding in liaison with their planned host organization. Proposals are judged on their research quality, the researcher's future career prospects, and the support offered by the host organization. Fellows can also spend part of the fellowship elsewhere in Europe if this would boost impact, and those restarting their career in Europe benefit from special eligibility conditions.
How to get in touch with our Research Groups?
A great number of Research Groups at UPCT have expressed their interest in hosting a researcher through the Marie-Curie Actions. Please find below the list of Research Groups with links to further information.
