Arctic MSCA-PF Program

UiT supervisors identify potential postdoc candidates based on applications received through EURAXESS. UiT supervisor sends the postdoc candidate's CV for evaluation to the organisers to ensure fit for MSCA-PF scheme.

Supervisors and favorably evaluated candidates are invited to the Arctic MSCA symposium.

Note: Postdoctoral candidates residing outside Europe will be invited to join the symposium on a digital platform only (not invited physically to Tromsø as before). Candidates currently residing in Europe will have the opportunity to choose to join digitally or physically.

The supervisor and candidate meet (virtually) to discuss a project plan for the MSCA-PF application. It should be mentioned that the preliminary project plan proposed by the candidate in the EURAXESS ad may change as a result of these discussions. 

Candidates will send a five-page summary of the project (excluding references) to their supervisors and the organisers before May 6th. This summary should answer questions like What, Why and How.
