Fully Funded Marie Curie Fellowships in Europe 2026 for All Nationalities

The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide funding for researchers holding a doctoral degree to pursue an independent research project at a host institution in Europe or associated countries, with opportunities for international mobility, cross‑disciplinary training, and collaboration with non-academic partners. The programme supports two pathways: European Fellowships (open to researchers of all nationalities, moving to Europe or within Europe) and Global Fellowships (outgoing research outside Europe with a mandatory return phase to Europe). The fellowship covers researcher employment costs, training, and research activities, and may include allowances for mobility, family status, and disabilities, along with opportunities for short secondments and non‑academic placements.

Monthly living allowance, mobility allowance, family allowance (where eligible), support for disability needs, research funding, training opportunities, and potential secondments or non-academic placements.

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree by the application deadline and have no more than eight years of research experience after obtaining the degree; there is no maximum age limit; a joint research project with a supervisor and an eligible host institution is required.

Submit a proposal adhering to the MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship guidelines through the official selection process (host institution and supervisor prepare the joint proposal).
