Decoding ERC Grants Part 2: Strategies for Success

The European Research Council (ERC) is the premier European funding organisation for excellent frontier research. It gives creative researchers across Europe the support to run cutting-edge projects. The overall ERC budget is more than €16 billion (2021-2027).ERC Grants can change the trajectory of a researcher’s career– which explains why over 100,000 research proposals have been made to the organisation. This also means that competition is fierce. The multi-stage application process is daunting for any researcher at any stage.EURAXESS Smart Talks are excited to present “Decoding ERC Grants: Strategies for Success,” a two-part mini-series on the ERC Grant proposal process. We will tackle difficult questions that researchers face when applying for an ERC grant, and provide clear advice on how to take your research proposal to the next level.On this episode, we sit down with Prof. Dr. Maximilian Schich, Professor for Cultural Data Analytics and the ERA Chair holder at Tallinn University. Prof. Schich is a multidisciplinary scientist and art historian with post-doc experience in network science and computational social science, as well as an ERC grant proposal panellist.Armed with his experience as a panellist, Prof. Schich has very practical and relevant advice for researchers looking to fund their projects. We’ll walk through the panel process and shed light on what makes a good presentation– and what makes a bad one. You’ll walk away with a clearer image of what to expect when you walk into the panel room. All that and more– on the EURAXESS Smart Talks Podcast!To learn more about Prof. Schich and the groundbreaking work he does:https://www.schich.infohttps://cudan.tlu.eeFor more information on ERC grants, visit the ERC website:https://erc.europa.eu/homepageTo find out more about EURAXESS and the services we provide, head to:https://euraxess.ec.europa.eu/Send us a message!
