Grants are aimed at promoting the formation and incorporation of national and
foreign researchers with an outstanding trajectory in R&D centers through, on
the one hand, by granting their employment contracts and, on the other hand,
by granting the creation of permanent jobs for their subsequent incorporation in
the agents of the Spanish science system, technology and innovation
beneficiaries.
These calls mean a tangible and real international collaboration through the
integration of foreign investigators, at all stages, in the Spanish research teams.
Rationale/Imp
act
The State Plan for Research addresses the human resources in R&D policy as most
important. One of the main instruments to support the Spanish STI system
through competitive calls to support nationals in their scientific careers and
attract researchers from other countries, since it is open to foreign researchers.
This is a set of calls offering contracts to the best young investigators, in three
stages along their careers: predoc (FPI subprogramme together with the
ES.2018.1 activity), young post-doctoral investigators (Juan de la Cierva
subprogramme JdC), and consolidation post-doc contracts (Ramón y Cajal
subprogramme, RyC).
The selection is based on a rigorous process of competitive concurrence of the
candidates based on their curricular merits and based on their capacity to lead a
line of research, depending on the scientific and professional experience as well
as the independence of their trajectory.
These calls mean a tangible and real international collaboration through the
integration of foreign investigators, at all stages, in the Spanish research teams.
Objectives
The FPI subprogramme is aimed at training of doctors through the financing of
predoctorate contracts, in R&D centres, wishing to carry out a doctoral thesis
linked to a research project under different State programmes and
subprogrammes.
The JdC and RyC subprogrammes are aimed at promoting the incorporation of
national and foreign researchers with an outstanding trajectory in R&D centers
through, on the one hand, by granting their employment contracts and, on the
other hand, by granting the creation of permanent jobs for their subsequent
incorporation in the agents of the Spanish science system, technology and
innovation beneficiaries.
Deliverables
Contracts for the formation and incorporation of researchers from
Mediterranean non-EU countries.

beneficiaries
The beneficiaries are individuals from non-EU Mediterranean countries working
at different research centres, which are the intermediate beneficiaries:
Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC)
Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y alimentaria (INIA)
Spanish Universities
Regional Research Centres
Countries
where
research is
conducted
Spain and others (mobility actions allow the researchers to collaborate with other
countries by doing short stays abroad)
Collaborating

No partner is required for the Spanish side. The call is open to individual applicants
from all over the world. The mobility actions are open to any country willing to
invite students for a short stay
Commitments
Total national
public

for entire
duration of
the activity (in
€)
Estimated: average annual budget (last year's grants) of 600.000 euros for two to
five year grants to support contracts for non-EU Mediterranean post-docs.
Given that the activity is a competitive call, it is in principle not possible to know
in advance the number of non-EU researchers who will apply and be selected.
Alignment
with PRIMA
Strategic
Research and
Innovation
Agenda
Capacity building for young researchers from the non-EU Mediterranean countries
in PRIMA topics. This is a very open programme, which has offered the possibility
to many foreign students to do their doctoral thesis in Spain.
The number of nationals from non-EU Mediterranean countries has been
increasing in the last years. It is envisaged that more and more foreign students
will apply in the future.
