  • A call for applications for co-financing of postdoctoral research contracts (1 to 2 years)
  • A call for proposals for funding of short research stays (14 days to 5 months) for international researchers and PhD students
Calls for applications for grants at the master level, for postdoctoral fellows, and for short research stays are now open and will close on April 6. Students will be able to apply for PhD offers from April 5 to 20. Three research topics will be prioritized: earth system sciences, climate change and sustainability sciences, energy transition.
