MSCA Initiative
The University of Graz organizes an annual Marie Skłodowska-Curie Postdoctoral Fellowship (MSCA-PF) workshop in cooperation with experts from the Austrian National Contact Point (NCP).
Excellent candidates are invited to a 2-day intensive workshop with the support of a mentor from the University of Graz and a meeting with their potential mentor to increase their chances of a successful MSCA-PF application. If you submit an MSCA-PF application with the University of Graz as host, you will receive a travel reimbursement of up to € 600,-.
Additionally you will get a second chance for top evaluated but rejected applications! We will fund up to three applicants that got rejected but received a Seal of Excellence (score min. 85%) with an up to one-year PostDoc position. That way you can resubmit and have no gap of employment till you can (hopefully) start your fellowship a year later!
If you are not yet in contact with a suitable mentor, you can search the Research Portal for possible researchers your field or contact mario.mueller(at)uni-graz.at.
See here what makes Graz a great host city and what support you can get from us, independent of your participation in the workshop.
