ERC Grant Workshop: Practical Strategies and Grantee Experience

Are you a late-stage Ph.D. candidate, postdoctoral researcher, or faculty member aiming to secure prestigious international funding for your ground-breaking research?

Join us for an ERC Grant Workshop, co-hosted by the Faculty of Social Sciences (FSV UK) and the European Centre of Charles University (RUK).

Why attend?

  • Gain clear insight into ERC conditions: Get straightforward guidance on Starting, Consolidator and Advanced Grants, eligibility windows, and what applies at your career stage.

  • Demystify the ERC: Highly competitive, yes, but not out of reach. With a strong idea and solid preparation, a competitive proposal is a realistic goal, as grantees already based at FSV UK show.

  • Learn directly from experience: Our director Michal Smetana, ERC Starting Grantee, takes you behind the scenes of his application: the hurdles, the strategies that worked, and honest advice for future applicants.

  • Connect with dedicated support: Meet the faculty and university teams ready to help you with proposal preparation, grant administration, and budgeting.

The event will take place on Thursday, November 26th from 9:30 to 11:30 at the Hollar building (room H212).
