Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) fellowships offer researchers the opportunity to enhance their careers through advanced training, and cross-border and cross-sector mobility.

MSCA fellowships are open to all research and innovation areas, from basic research to market take-up and innovation services, with topics chosen by applicants in a fully bottom-up听manner.听There are 2 main types of MSCA contracts:

• MSCA Doctoral Networks
• MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships

2023 MSCA Doctoral Networks and Postdoctoral Fellowship听programmes are听funded by the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) Horizon Europe guarantee funding. See our听Funding for current projects section below for further information.

MSCA Doctoral Networks

MSCA Doctoral Networks (previously known as Innovative Training Networks)听fund doctoral programmes for听early-stage researchers to respond to听current and future challenges.

They听enable听researchers to听convert their knowledge and ideas into products and services for economic and social benefit and provide听transferable skills training to enhance their careers.听

The programme is set up by partnerships of organisations听from across Europe and beyond.

Eligibility criteria

Early-stage researchers (Fellows) are typically enrolled on a PhD programme. Recruited researchers should be enrolled on a doctoral programme during the project but should not have a doctoral degree at the date of their recruitment.

Researchers funded by Doctoral Networks can be of any nationality. Candidates should not have lived or carried out their main activity in the UK for more than 12 months in the 3 years immediately before their recruitment.

Candidates can apply for PhD vacancies funded by MSCA Doctoral Networks projects through the听听辫辞谤迟补濒.

What does the funding cover?

The duration of each fellowship is between 3 and 36 months. Researchers are provided听with a living allowance, a mobility allowance, and if applicable, a family allowance (if married and/or with responsibility for dependent children).听Allowances include the cost of employment for UCL, employer National Insurance (NI) and pension contributions.

Fellows听are paid a fixed salary during听the fellowship with no annual increments and听the current London Allowance, which qualifies听for adjustments.听There are 4听possible levels of basic salary, as shown in the table below, depending on whether the Fellow has听dependents and if they opt out of the SAUL pension scheme. You can find out more about Pensions听on the UCL听HR website.听

Salaries听are听based on MSCA-awarded rates from the Work Programme 2023-24. If the appointment is for a Doctoral Network project awarded for a different Work Programme听you should contact our听Award Services Post-Award team at听ecpostaward@ucl.ac.uk for costing advice.听

MSCA Postdoctoral听Fellowships

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships听support听researcher听careers and foster excellence in research. The fellowships are听aimed at researchers with听a PhD who wish to carry out their research activities abroad, acquire new skills and develop their careers. They help researchers to gain experience in other countries, disciplines and non-academic sectors.

There are 2 types of听MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships:

1. European Postdoctoral Fellowships, where the Fellow is based here 澳门历史开奖记录.
2. Global Postdoctoral Fellowships, where the fellow is seconded to a third country for 1-2 years and has a mandatory third-year听reintegration 澳门历史开奖记录.

Eligibility criteria

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships will be open to excellent researchers of any nationality. Projects are solely awarded to the individual and UCL.

Candidates will need to identify a UCL Principal Investigator (PI) to act as their Supervisor听and contact them to find out whether they would support you carrying听out your听fellowship in their group. If accepted, the researcher and听PI听should work together to develop听and submit the proposal on the European Commission's听听by the call deadline.

MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship opportunities are also advertised on听the听听辫辞谤迟补濒.

What does the funding cover?

The fellowships will be open to excellent researchers of any nationality.听The projects are solely awarded to the individual and UCL.

For EF, each fellow鈥檚 contract comprises living, mobility and family allowances (dependents at the time of recruitment or during the project) as awarded by the scheme.听Due to the nature of GF projects, the salary and top-up allowances will need to be pre-costed. Contact the Award Services Post-Award听team at ecpostaward@ucl.ac.uk in advance for advice.

All allowances awarded include the cost of employment for UCL, employer NI and pension contributions, as per EC regulations highlighted in section 1.1 鈥淎pplicable unit contributions鈥� of the MSCA WP.听Annual allowances are shown in the table below:
