Applying for FP7 funding

Please note that from January 2011 all FP7 Open Calls are displayed on the Research Participant Portal website (the current CORDIS Open Calls page will no longer be updated). (CORDIS, however, is still the official source for legal documents and guidance documents and will continue to be responsible for the dissemination of news relating to project results.)

Our EC Factsheets currently still point to the CORDIS link for Open Calls but will be updated in due course.

Applying for FP7 Opportunities

Applicants should read the Work Programme applicable to the current call and the Guide for Applicants for the specific type of project they are applying for. Both can be downloaded from the Research Participant Portal when clicking on the programme, selecting the appropriate call for proposals, then opening the Information package. On the same web page of a specific call, applicants can register their proposal on the Electronic Proposal Submission Service (EPSS). Make sure to select the correct type of project in the pull-down menu.

The University was successful in gaining the European Commission's HR Excellence in Research Award in 2012. Please display the HE Excellence in Research Award logo and/or refer to the award in your grant application wherever appropriate.

Please also see our EC Team's Factsheets for guidance on applying and costing applications.
