Projects are funded by evaluating them according to scientific excellence criteria

A webinar was organized by the Office of Scientific Research Projects of Istanbul Gelisim University on how scientists from IGU can get funding for their projects from the European Research Council - ERC, what the basics and evaluation criteria of project application are.

Both the researcher and the research team are supported

European Research Council – ERC annually funds high-budget and risky/reward academic research projects that are difficult to get funding from many national programs. Thanks to the Council, scientists with projects in the fields of science, natural sciences, social sciences, interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary fields can apply and receive funding support for their projects without any subject restrictions. At the same time, the European Research Council supports the project teams and the scientists who have the project by providing funding.
