[ecrea] Postdoc fellowships at Open University of Catalonia (UOC), Barcelona

Call for postdoctoral research fellowships at the UOC, for UOC Departments
and Research Institutes

The program of postdoctoral research fellowships has as its objective the
recognition of new researchers within existing UOC research groups. The new
personnel will make it possible to expand the research teams of UOC
research groups, as well as improve the quality and competitiveness of the
R+D+Innovation being carried out.

The awarding of these grants will be carried out in function of certain
indicators demonstrating the scope and productivity of the various research
areas of the UOC. The program will be carried out by means of a single call
offering three postdoctoral grants. This program is financed by the
Fundació per a la Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (Foundation for the
Universitat Oberta de Catalunya, FUOC).

The objective of the call is to encourage fellowships at the Universitat
Oberta de Catalunya for teaching and research personnel who have acquired
their doctoral degrees at another university in any active research area of
the University's departments for a period of three years. The existence and
scope of the said grant will be adjusted to corresponding budgetary
availability, and will be for an overall maximum of 371,000 Euros for the
three years.

The program of postdoctoral research fellowships is set out in the terms of
Law 14/2011, for Science, Technology and Innovation. In agreement with
Article 22 of Law 14/2011, for Science, Technology and Innovation, the
beneficiaries of the program will receive an employment contract providing
access to the Spanish System of Science, Technology and Innovation, for the
term of one year. The maximum length of the contract, including all
prorogues, will be three years. Contract renewal will require a favourable
report from the Research and Doctoral Commission, which will evaluate the
fulfilment of the research objectives as agreed upon by the beneficiary of
the grant, and in the time period foreseen.

The period of presentation of applications·and of the required accompanying
documentation will be from July 30 to October 1, 2014. Further information
