MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships – Call for Expression of Interest

MSCAPostdoc_en

The Department of Applied Economics (DEA) at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) is accepting proposals of potential applicants to MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships within a list of proposed research areas in Applied Economics.

Interested candidates should send by email an updated cv together with a 1000-word outline of a research project that would constitute the basis of the Postdoctoral Fellowship proposal. The proposal should detail the main idea that the researcher would like to work on and how it is related to his/her previous work. It should identify with which one of the research topics listed below it corresponds, even if it implies cross-disciplinary research.

Proposals should be sent as pdf files to d.econ.aplicada@uab.cat no later than June 4 2023, under the subject “MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships 2023”. A committee of DEA’s faculty will review all the proposals and select the ones that are considered to have more success possibilities, to which a supervisor will be assigned. The candidate and the supervisor will work together in preparing a MSCA application, to be submitted to the European Commission by September.
