TALENT TALENT Doctoral Fellowship Programme

Coordinator: KOBENHAVNS UNIVERSITET (DK)

The TALENT Doctoral Fellowship Programme aims to leverage the intersectoral and international opportunities offered by the Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen, in order to produce a cohort of graduates with the skills and expertise needed to meet the growing demand for highly educated human resources within the natural and technical sciences in Europe.

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

Co-funding: the European Union contributes €5.8M toward a total project budget of €11.6M — a funding rate of 50%, with the remainder covered by the consortium partners. The project runs over approximately 6 years from 2018-08-01 to 2024-07-31.
