The ERC Starting (StG), Consolidator (CoG) and Advanced Grant (AdG) programs of the European Research Council belong to the most prestigious funding instruments in Europe and worldwide for research on the frontiers of science, scholarship and engineering.

Open to individual applicants from all scientific disciplines, they provide generous support for researchers at different career levels to perform ground-breaking research for up to five years. In addition, the ERC Synergy Grants allow for collaborative high-level research by a group of up to four excellent principal investigators.

To find out more about the various ERC grants and their submission requirements in the upcoming calls in 2023/24, the European Project Center of TU Dresden invites you to the online information event “The European Research Council and its grants - an overview”.
