Submit European Research Council (ERC)
As Switzerland is not associated to Horizon Europe, Swiss institutions can only participate in some ERC-schemes as a so-called “host institution”. Transitional measures on national level exist for ERC calls, where such a participation is not possible. Please contact us for more information and to check your eligibility.
Information about the scope of this program can be found in the respective "Funding Opportunity" section.
In addition to the eligibility criteria from the ERC, there are additional ETH internal criteria that need to be met. They are related to the maximum duration of your employment and the support from the department (e.g. retirement, possibility to get appointed an assistant professorship). Please send us your up-to-date CV including your PhD certificate to ckeck your eligibility.
Please contact us immediately, we will send you then all relevant information in an Email. There is a mandatory procedure to be followed and internal deadlines to be met.
