3 ERASMUS STAFF MOBILITY WEEK 2011 EU Research Programmes FP7 in brief 7th Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (2007-2013) is the main financial tool through which the European Union supports research and development activities, covering almost all scientific disciplines. The overall amount for Community financial participation in the 7FP is EUR 50 521 million for the period 2007 - 2013 FP7 is organised in four programmes corresponding to four basic components of European research: COOPERATION IDEAS PEOPLE CAPACITIES

4 ERASMUS STAFF MOBILITY WEEK 2011 EU Research Programmes FP7 in brief - COOPERATION Cooperation is the core of FP7, representing two thirds of the overall budget. It fosters collaborative research across Europe and other partner countries through transnational projects carried out in ten key thematic areas: Health Food, agriculture and fisheries, and biotechnology Information and communication technologies Nanosciences, nanotechnologies, materials and new production techn. Energy Environment (including climate change) Transport (including aeronautics) Socio-economic sciences and the humanities Space Security

5 ERASMUS STAFF MOBILITY WEEK 2011 EU Research Programmes FP7 in brief - IDEAS Ideas programme supports “frontier research” on the basis of scientific excellence. Research may be carried out in any area of science or technology and there is no obligation for cross- border partnerships, including engineering, socio-economic sciences and the humanities. In contrast with the Cooperation programme, there is no obligation for cross-border partnerships. Projects are implemented by “individual teams” around a “principal investigator”. The programme is implemented via the new European Research Council (ERC)

6 ERASMUS STAFF MOBILITY WEEK 2011 EU Research Programmes FP7 in brief - PEOPLE The People programme provides support for researcher mobility and career development for researchers inside the European Union and internationally. It is implemented via a set of Marie Curie actions, providing fellowships and other measures to help researchers build their skills and competences throughout their careers: Initial training of researchers - Marie Curie Networks Industry-academia partnerships Co-funding of regional, national and international mobility programmes Intra-European fellowships International dimension - outgoing and incoming fellowships, International cooperation scheme, reintegration grants
