Survey on the added value of MSCA PhDs

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes MSCA MSCA

The European Research Executive Agency (REA) of the European Commission is conducting a survey to gather (anonymous) feedback on the added value of MSCA PhDs, in comparison to other doctoral programmes.

The survey is addressed to principal investigators/supervisors as well as PhD researchers (PhD completed or ongoing) involved in MSCA and non-MSCA funded projects.

This feedback is highly valuable as it will help to improve the MSCA Doctoral Networks programme, which is managed by the REA. It will also feed into the European Commission’s wider policy reflections for the forthcoming period: promoting excellence in doctoral education and training is relevant to their strategic objectives for both the European Research Area (ERA) and the European Education Area (EEA), and contributes to the implementation of the European Strategy for Universities (here and here)             .

The survey can be accessed here and the Data Protection Notice here. Please note that it may take up to 1-2 minutes for the survey to load completely. The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The survey will remain open until 10 November 2024.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
