As described below, there are two types of application for a Marie Curie Fellowship: individual fellowships, where individual researchers apply to the Commission for a fellowship; and host fellowships, where institutions apply to the Commission to host a number of researchers.
Individual Fellowships:
Marie Curie Individual Fellowships
Fellowships for young researchers at post-doctoral level or equivalent
Marie Curie Return Fellowships
Fellowships for Marie Curie Fellows, originating from a less-favoured region, to return to a less favoured region of their home country after their initial two year post-doctoral fellowship
Marie Curie Experienced Researchers Fellowships
Fellowships for experienced researchers: for the transfer of expertise and technology between (i) industry and academia and (ii) towards less-favoured regions of the European Community.
Host Fellowships:
Stays at Marie Curie Training Sites
Giving young researchers pursuing doctoral studies the opportunity to spend part of their studies within an internationally recognised group, in their specialised area of research.
Marie Curie Development Host Fellowships
Fellowships for institutions located in less-favoured regions, which are active in research and have a need to develop new areas of research competence, to host post-doctoral level researchers in the area of competence required.
Marie Curie Industry Host Fellowships
Awarded to enterprises, including SMEs, for the training of young researchers, at postgraduate and post-doctoral level, in an industrial or commercial environment. These fellowships particularly aim at providing research training opportunities for young researchers without any previous industrial experience.
Further information on the System of Marie Curie Fellowships and application forms may be obtained from its website (/improving/home.html) or from the IHP Programme's information desk.
