Are you a researcher working in the fields of Energy, Sustainability and/or Climate Change? The Centre for Energy Ethics would love to host you for a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship.
The Postdoctoral Fellowships targets researchers holding a PhD who wish to carry out their research activities abroad, acquire new skills and develop their careers. PFs help researchers gain experience in other countries, disciplines and non-academic sectors.
MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships are open to postdoctoral researchers from all over the world that:
- hold a PhD degree on the closing date for applications. Applicants who have successfully defended their doctoral thesis but who have not yet formally been awarded the doctoral degree are also eligible to apply
- have a maximum of eight years of experience in research from the date of the award of the PhD degree – the following experience will not be counted towards this maximum
- years of experience outside research and career breaks
- years of experience in research in third countries, for nationals or long-term residents of EU Member States or Horizon Europe Associated Countries who wish to reintegrate to Europe
- comply with mobility rules: they must not have resided or carried out their main activity (work, studies, etc.) in the country of the beneficiary (for European Postdoctoral Fellowships), or the host organisation for the outgoing phase (for Global Postdoctoral Fellowships) for more than 12 months in the 36 months immediately before the call deadline
Application process
You will need to
- develop an application jointly with your chosen host organisation
- submit your application to an open funding call published on the Funding and Tender Opportunities Portal
To find a host organisation (potentially the CEE!)
- your network will be an invaluable source
- you can also check the list of hosting offers (expressions of interest) published on Euraxess and other job portals from research institutions interested in supporting your application
Offers are often in very concrete fields of research proposed by the host organisation. In many cases, you will be in contact with a supervisor to develop your application. You will need to check carefully the requirements to make sure you are eligible to apply.
