CEN's "Joint Projects" program is designed to help regular members initiate new team projects and create new synergies.
Joint Projects are new research initiatives led by at least 2 regular CEN members (co-investigators). The objectives of this internal funding program are
The involvement of more than one institution in a joint project is an advantage in obtaining this financial support. The representativeness of the institutions will also be taken into account in the evaluation of joint projects.
Not to be missed! A new competition for the Joint Projects program will open in 2027. To find out how to apply, visit the dedicated page.
