「瑪麗居裡」項目全稱為Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions,簡稱 MSCA,命名于波蘭裔法國科學家瑪麗居裡博士,由隸屬於歐洲議會(European Commission, EC)的歐洲研究會(European Research Council, ERC)主管。
「瑪麗居裡」項目的主要目的是,通過大力提倡跨學科研究和國際合作,為處於各個階段的各國研究人員提供進一步的訓練並促進職業發展。
「瑪麗居裡」項目分為若干個計劃,其中最主要的是Innovative Training Networks(ITN)和Individual Fellowships(IF),分別培養博士生和博士後研究人員。
「瑪麗居裡」項目為招收的博士生及博士後提供所在國家的工作籤證以及極具競爭力的工資。
項目給博士提供的工資及各類補貼的總和超過了絕大多數美國全獎博士的獎學金合同,在世界範圍內僅次於瑞士博士的工資。
ITN項目的獲得者被稱為Early-Stage Researcher (ESR),該項目幾乎覆蓋了各個學科最前沿的研究方向,由於ITN項目由歐洲高校、研究機構、非學術機構的教授們聯合申請,使得每個博士生都會有一至兩次的項目外派,即派往你申請的子項目內其餘合作高校或機構內進行為期三個月左右的學術交流,同時還能體驗到產學研各方面。
該項目不僅增加了學生的國家視野,同時在三到四年就可以博士畢業,時間成本很有優勢。ESR的合同最多3年,而且必須是工作合同。歐洲博士生基本是合同制,和導師之間是同事關係。僱主是項目中的某一個參與單位,該單位被稱為承擔單位。承擔單位的博士如果是4年制的話(比如荷蘭),第4年的學費、生活費不能從ITN項目獲得,需要通過其他途徑獲取。同樣為了鼓勵學術交流,申請者在之前3年內不能在承擔單位所在國家居住超過一年。
ITN項目分3種:
European Training Networks(ETN)
European Industrial Doctorates(EID)
European Joint Doctorates (EJD)
ETN偏向於在歐洲高校進行;EID偏向歐洲高校和歐洲企業聯合培養;EJD偏向於聯合學位的博士,畢業後頒發至少2所高校的學位。
對於補助方面,工資一般為3110歐/月(25,263 元含稅)。同時所有獲獎者,每月也有補貼600歐,對於已經結婚或者有未成年子女要撫養,每月額外增加補貼500歐。同樣該項目也會給承擔單位一定的補助用於入選者的研究經費及其管理。
IF項目主要資助研究人員(擁有博士學位或四年以上全職科研經歷)進行國際交流,不限學科領域。入選的中國籍研究人員可通過此獎學金資助,在歐洲大學、研究所及公司進行研究。該項目是歐盟資助個人科研的最高獎項,享有很高的國際聲譽。
IF的最新工資標準是4880歐/月(約為39,772元含稅)乘以承擔單位所在國家的物價係數。稅後工資=4880*國家係數-僱主貢獻-社保-工資稅。對於所有入選者,每月還有補貼600歐,對於已經結婚或者有未成年子女要撫養,每月另外加補貼500歐。
當然稅後能拿多少還是要看各個歐盟國家的稅率和係數,同時該項目也會給承擔單位一定的補助用於入選者的研究經費及其管理。
該項目申請者需要具有博士學位,要和歐洲高校/機構的教授和專門負責這部分的寫作部門合作聯合寫研究計劃,每年一輪。評委基於研究計劃打分,每個研究領域按照分數排名發放資助。不同領域可能打分的情況不一樣,項目資助時長一般為1-2年。同時為了鼓勵學術交流,申請者在之前3年內不能在主承擔單位所在國家居住超過一年。
14 PhD positions areavailable for highly motivated Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) as part of thenew H2020, EU-funded, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Joint Training and Research Programme 「QUANTIMONY:Quantum Semiconductor Technologies exploiting Antimony」.
The QUANTIMONY consortium is a European Innovative Training Network(ITN) with a corefocuson the field of semiconductor science and technology, covering all scientific and engineering aspects from modelling through to material growth and characterization, device fabrication and analysis, and industrial exploitation.
We are looking for 14 young talented ESRs to worktowards their PhD in one of these countries: Germany, Italy, The Netherlands, Spain and UK starting on April/June2021.
We offer:
Comprehensive, interactive and international research training onsemiconductor materials and devices covering fabrication, characterization, theoretical aspects and their application towards scalable and industrially relevant technologies.
Secondments and travel opportunities, aswell as research-specific, complementary and transferrable skills courses andworkshops, delivered by academic and industry experts, which are tailor-made toprepare young researchers for their future careers.
Three or four year contracts with a highly competitive salary adapted to the life cost in each host country.
Family allowances (where applicable) as part of the employment package.
Applicants can be of anynationality.
At the date of recruitment, applicants should hold a Physics, Chemistry or Engineering Degree. A separate Master in a scientific field or, an integrated Master (MPhys, MSci,MEng, MChem etc.) is highly recommendable and mandatory in some countries.
At the date of recruitment, applicants must be within four years oftheir first diploma/degree granting them access to doctorate studies intheir country or the country of the recruiting institution (ESReligibility).
In the last 36 months prior to the sign in gof their contract, the applicant must not have resided/studied/worked for more than 12 months in the country of the recruiting institution (Mobility criterion).
Applicants should be proficientin written and spoken English.
Applicants have not been awarded yet a doctoral degree.
Selection process
Applicants will be firstly evaluated based on reported academic performance and background, scientific relevance and aptitude to research, andadditional data (such as scientific publications, if any). The candidates thatpass the initial assessment will be required to send additional documentation and invited for an interview with the recruitment panel via internet videoconference. Candidates that are successful in initial interviews will beinvited for a final interview with their PhD supervisor.
Application procedure
Applications must be submitted online at https://quantimony.eu and include the following documents:
