Descrizione del progetto
Formazione per la carriera post-dottorato attraverso una rete UNA Europa
Il progetto UNA4CAREER è condotto e cofinanziato dall’Università Complutense di Madrid (UCM) al fine di offrire a 40 ricercatori, contattati mediante due bandi nell’ambito di un programma della durata di 60 mesi, una borsa di ricerca post-dottorato che ne potenzierà le prospettive di carriera. Il programma si avvale inoltre dell’adesione della UCM all’Alleanza europea UNA, di cui fanno parte le maggiori istituzioni di ricerca dell’UE, per offrire la possibilità di effettuare distaccamenti presso altri cinque paesi europei. Prevede quattro grandi aree di lavoro (studi umanistici, scienze della salute, sociali e sperimentali) e, al tempo stesso, incoraggia fortemente i progetti interdisciplinari. I borsisti di UNA4CAREER acquisiranno l’esperienza e le competenze necessarie per costruire una carriera di ricerca nel mondo accademico e non solo, sostenuti da una solida formazione europea.
Obiettivo
Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM), one of the top ranked Universities in Spain, supports Post Doctorates through its own talent attraction programme (0,5M€/year) and co-funds 50% of Regional programmes (0.5M€/year).
UCM is a well-positioned University at National and EU level, but expanding the funding and territorial scope of these initiatives will allow UCM and the Region to become even more attractive to outside talent.
UNI4CAREER aims at mobilizing 7M€ in the Region (over doubling current funding), through a multiannual fellowship programme (60 months) that will attract 40 experienced researchers in 2 international calls (20 researchers / call). The fellows will incorporate into one of 94 UCM´s excellence groups on 4 knowledge areas: humanities, health, social and experimental sciences.
UNA4CAREER leverages on UNA EUROPA ALLIANCE inspired by, and contributing to, EC EUROPEAN UNIVERSITIES INITIATIVE: UCM plus 5 top EU universities from Italy, France, Belgium, Germany and Poland, that will be Partner Organisations (PO) offering secondment positions, being all committed with HRS4R (4 out of 6 members, including UCM, awarded).
UNA4CAREER, as an open network enabling 40 researchers to combine their work in an INTERNATIONAL (6 countries), CROSS-SECTORAL (possibility to interact with over 500 actors through the UNA Europa Alliance) and INTERDISCIPLINARY (4 scientific areas) framework, will definitely help spreading the best practices of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions.
UNA4CAREER will allow the fellows to EXPAND their SKILLS in order to improve their employability in both the academic and non-academic sectors, through SECONDMENTS (60 months in Academic and 30 months in non-Academic entities are estimated).
UNA4CAREER will also encourage researchers to PURSUE A CAREER with a truly European dimension including COMPLEMENTARY TRAINING ON RESEARCH AND TRANSFERABLE SKILLS (over 58 courses available).
