Opportunity description

European Research Council (ERC) announces the ERC Grants for Researchers of Any Nationality with the Opportunity to receive € 1.5 million for a period of 5 years. This opportunity will fit you if you are a talented early-career scientist who has already produced excellent work.

Benefits

  • Starting Grants may be awarded up to € 1.5 million for a period of 5 years. However, an additional € 1 million can be made available to cover eligible “start-up” costs for researchers moving from a third country to the EU or an associated country and/or the purchase of major equipment and/or access to large facilities and/or other major experimental and fieldwork costs.
  • An ERC grant can cover up to 100% of the total eligible direct costs of the research plus a contribution of 25% of the total eligible costs towards indirect costs.

Eligibility criteria

  • Researchers of any nationality can apply.
  • You must have from 2 to 7 years of experience since completion of your Ph.D.
  • Applications can be made in any field of research.
  • Grants are awarded to the Host Institution with the explicit commitment that this institution offers appropriate conditions for the Principal Investigator independently to direct the research and manage its funding for the duration of the project.
  • Any type of legal entity, including universities, research centers, and undertakings can host the PI and his/her team. Legally the host institution must be based in one of the EU Member States or one of the associated countries.
  • The PI does not necessarily need to be working at the host institution at the time when the proposal is submitted.
  • ERC grants support projects carried out by an individual researcher who can employ researchers of any nationality as team members. It is also possible to have one or more team members located in a non-European country.
  • Vacancies for team members interested in joining an ERC-led research project, can be published on the Euraxess-Jobs portal.
