UDE International Staff Week for EU Research Funding and Information Managers

It is our pleasure to invite you to the International Staff Week at the University of Duisburg-Essen (UDE), which will take place from 25.11.2019 until 28.11.2019. The language of communication will be English.

Topic?

One of the three thematic tracks will be directed towards:

EU Research and Information Managers

The main purpose of the track is to create a meeting place for EU research funding and information managers to share knowledge and exchange best practice and experiences, and in doing so strengthening relations between our institutions.

In particular, we would like to:

• Share expertise about our work, about hurdles and impetus in EU grant support, on successful impact strategies and networks from different disciplines as well as EU research support programmes
• Discuss innovative concepts, projects and support tools, e.g. on how to mobilize or reward researchers.

A detailed preliminary version of the programme can be found here.
