Marie Curie Actions for an Innovative Europe Fremmer forskermobilitet Styrker samarbeidet mellom næringsliv og akademia Gir ferdigheter som etterspørres i både offentlig og privat sektor Retter seg mot forskere på alle steg i karrieren Alle fagfelt inkludert Internasjonal, interdisiplinær og intersektoral mobilitet Dekker, i hovedsak, lønnskostnader for forskeren

Marie Curie Actions anno 2011 Ikke bare «stipender», i høy grad nettverkstiltak og også policy actions (Euraxess – Charter and Code, Pension funds, Researchers´Visa, Researchers´Night) Alle som bedriver forskningsvirksomhet er potensielle «kunder» Tiltak som styrker Europe 2020 (policy setting): Innovation Union New skills and jobs Youth on the move

Marie Curie Actions anno 2011 Internasjonal: 120 nasjonaliteter har deltatt, vertsorganisasjoner i 67 land Pr. 2010: 50 000 MCA-stipender siden starten i 1996 Høy kvalitet: alle de 100 fremste universitetene i Shanghai-rankingen deltar

Initial training of researchers Bedriften i en ITN: Initial training of researchers - Initial Training Networks (ITN) Multipartner network Krav om næringslivsdeltakelse Nettverk, med formål å utdanne «earlystage researchers». 6-12 partnere. 4 års prosjekter. For bedriften: Kan rekruttere, eller bidra til næringslivserfaring for en «PhD-student» (secondments) opp til tre år Får nettverk i Europa, bedrifter Tilgang til ny kunnskap

Bedriften i en ITN (forts): Initial training of researchers - Initial Training Networks (ITN) European Industrial Doctorates Nærings-PhD i EU-setting. Komplementerer norsk ordning. Èn bedrift og én akademisk partner i to forskjellige land (EU27+assoc.states). Ansatt hos en av partene eller begge opp til tre år. Forskeren må tilbringe mest tid hos bedriften.

Bedriften i en ITN (forts): Initial training of researchers - Initial Training Networks (ITN) Innovative Doctoral Programmes Én akademisk partner i EU27+assoc.states. Kan ha assosierte partnere for training-formål. Typisk «Doctoral schools» Gjerne næringslivsdeltagelse som assoc. partner

Life-long training and career development - Intra-European Fellowships (IEF) - Career Integration Grants (CIG) - Co-funding of regional/national/international programmes (COFUND) IEF: Prosjekt med én vertsinstitusjon og én erfaren forsker (PhD eller >4år erfaring). Karriereutvikling for forskeren, avansert arbeidskraft med lønn dekket, nettverk og ny kunnskap for bedriften. 1-2 år. CIG: 25.000 euro i året (x4) for å ansette erfaren forsker i fire år eller mer, gjerne fra utenfor Europa. COFUND: for erfarne forskere, ikke næringslivsperspektiv.

Industry-academia cooperation - Industry-Academia Pathways and Partnerships Scheme (IAPP) Partnerskap mellom offentlige/private forsknings-organisasjoner og bedrifter basert på et felles forskningsprosjekt. Skal styrke kompetanseoverføringen på tvers av sektorene gjennom utveksling av personale. Må bestå av minst en deltager fra næringslivet og en fra akademia i hvert sitt land. Dekker alle fagområder. Prosjektvarighet 3 – 4 år. Dekker kostnader (100%) knyttet til medarbeiderutveksling, rekruttering av erfarne forskere utenfra nettverket og ulike nettverksaktiviteter (workshops, konferanser m.m.)

Industry–Academia Partnerships and Pathways (IAPP) Objectives Foster co-operation between non-commercial research organisations & commercial enterprises based on joint research projects. Stimulate long-term collaboration between sectors through secondment of researchers between the public & private research domains. Diverse career possibilities & research experience for researchers, knowledge sharing/cultural exchange.
