Webinar on MSCA Doctoral Networks 2024 call: how to build a competitive proposal
The webinar, organized online by the Individual Grants for Research Career Office (RIMIN), and held by consultants Peter Sheard and Célia Gavaud of Trend 2000 Ltd, in English, is intended to support Politecnico di Torino staff, both researchers and administrative offices involved as coordinators and beneficiaries, in writing a proposal in response to the MSCA Doctoral Networks 2024 Call for Proposals (call deadline: November 27, 2024).
The webinar aims to provide useful information and tools for effective proposal writing, with timely references to all sections of the template, from defining key concepts and articulating activities for impact, to identifying partners and preparing the budget.
The webinar will begin at 9:20. The first part of the day will be dedicated to structuring a Doctoral Network proposal in its constituent aspects by going into the main critical writing issues and elements that cannot be underestimated. In the afternoon, more cross-cutting aspects such as Supervision, implementation, and risk management will be explored in full compliance with the evaluation requirements.
The webinar will not be recorded. A lunch break is planned from 13:00 to 13:45.
To participate, registration is required by September 26 at this link. The day before the webinar, registrants will be emailed instructions on how to connect.
