SNSF - Professorships (first and second step)

Event details
Date | 01.05.2015 |
Speaker | Fonds National Suisse (FNS / SNSF) |
Category | Call for proposal |
SNSF professorships address young researchers who intend to pursue an academic career and wish to establish their own team to realise a research project.
This funding programme also aims at helping young talented researchers living abroad to continue their career development in Switzerland. Promotion of women succession in the academic field is another goal.
With its action plan “Coordinated Swiss Energy Research”, SNF also wants to encourage young researchers to apply to this funding opportunity to keep on the development of excellence in this sector.
An SNSF professorship includes the researcher's salary (assistant professorship level), a research grant, salaries of employees as well as a contribution to infrastructure costs. The funding period is 4 years and may be extended by no more than 2 years.
IMPORTANT: Please check the directive Polylex concerning professors funded by the SNSF and contact the Research Office no later than 17th April 2015 to obtain the formal support letter you need to provide with your submission.
