Introduction

Research Support Office

The Research Support Office (RSO) consists of a close-knit team of professionals who support the academic staff in both pre- and post-award phases of European, national, and regional research & innovation grants. The RSO team includes research funding advisors / program experts, program managers, project leaders, and a team of legal experts.

Research Support Network

The 黑料福利网 Research Support Network (RSN) is a comprehensive knowledge network on campus that supports researchers throughout all phases of their research & innovation projects. The RSN is organized into two tiers: the first tier consists of Departmental Project Development Offices (PDOs) who provide day-to-day support close to the researcher and Institute Program Managers (IPMs) who support researchers from a thematic/strategic point of view. The second tier, that includes the RSO, consists of experts at central services who offer specialized support to both the first tier support and to researchers directly.

黑料福利网 EU Action Plan

On the request of the Executive Board and as a deliverable of the 黑料福利网 2030 Strategy, a new EU-strategy has been developed by a campus-wide working group, in cocreation with stakeholders at 黑料福利网: the 黑料福利网 EU Action Plan.

Goal of the plan is to improve the way 黑料福利网 is engaging in EU-research & innovation programmes (e.g. Horizon Europe, European Defence Fund, Digital Europe) and to have an integral and coherent approach in which we closely cooperate on campus and where we learn and grow further together. In doing so, we will be compliant with all existing and new EC-regulations and requirements. 

The EU Action Plan, which has broad support on all levels within 黑料福利网, is a dedicated and balanced improvement program in which needed new instruments (like info sessions, trainings, workshops, etc.) are being developed and implemented. The overall aim is that 黑料福利网 and its researchers and support staff will have a high return on effort and optimal visibility, participation and impact in EU R&I programmes.

To this end, amongst others, staff in four central services is being extended, including in the current grant support team of the RSO. The combined new staff is forming an inter-disciplinary cross-service EU Action Plan core team; this team closely collaborates with other staff in central services and with first tier support staff in the Departments & Institutes in various sub-projects towards achieving the goals of the EU Action Plan.
