30.08.22: ARUA – The Guild info session on the MSCA Doctoral Networks call for funding
On 30 August, The Guild of European Research-Intensive Universities and the African Research Universities Alliance (ARUA) invite you to a virtual info session on the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Doctoral Networks 2022 call for funding. Join the event to hear insights from the European Commission and previous grant holders on how to set up a successful application and implement doctoral programmes between European and African universities. Register here to join the event.
Under Horizon Europe, the EU funding programme for research and innovation, the MSCA Doctoral Networks scheme funds the development of excellent doctoral training programmes and collaborative research projects worldwide.
The info session is directed to ARUA’s and The Guild’s member universities. It will be particularly relevant for researchers interested in leading or taking part in a MSCA Doctoral Network project with African/European partners and who would like to submit a proposal for the ongoing 2022 call (deadline 15 November). The event will also be pertinent for research support officers interested in learning more about the MSCA Doctoral Networks in the context of Europe-Africa university cooperation.
