Survey to collect best practice examples on supervision in MSCA

Published on | 1 year ago

Programmes MSCA MSCA

The European Commission is looking for success stories and inspirational examples of supervision practice across the Marie Sklodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) community, to prepare an evidence-based guidance document that will support the existing MSCA guidelines on supervision.

The European Commission has published a survey to gather the examples and stories on the following key themes addressed in the guidelines:

  • Defining supervision
  • Acknowledgement of and support for individual diversity
  • Managing individual supervisor-supervisee relationships (specifically communication and aligning expectations)
  • The benefits and challenges of team supervision (multiple supervisors working together and taking on different roles)
  • Facilitating collective supervision (having cohorts of supervisees together)
  • Institutional support structures (including administration, recognition of supervision quality, community creation etc)
  • Training effective supervisors and supervisees

The survey is targeted to researchers and research support personnel who have been involved in MSCA projects. This includes doctoral and postdoctoral fellows, academic and non-academic supervisors, mentors, coaches, administrative and technical staff.

The deadline to share the experience or best practice example is 2 September 2024.

STARGATE - Sustainable Aviation

The Stargate project obtained funding under the special Green Deal call of Horizon 2020, more in particular under the topic of “green ports and airports”.  It received the maximum score of the evaluators and was selected out of more than 40 projects. Stargate’s purpose is to prove that sustainable aviation is possible and happening. It focuses on the further decarbonization of the aviation industry, the improvement of local environmental quality and the stimulation of the modal split. Together with a consortium of 21 European partners with a diverse and rich expertise (airports, community partners, knowledge institutions, consultants, local governments, …), Brussels Airports takes the lead as lighthouse airport to develop and implement innovative solutions. Results that prove successful can be deployed at the fellow airports (Toulouse, Budapest, Athens). Over the course of the coming five years, the consortium will exchange knowledge to investigate and realize more than 30 concrete projects.
