A*STAR and the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education (MSHE) are pleased to announce the 3rd Joint Call for Proposals under the A*STAR-MSHE Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed on 15 January 2005 and renewed on 22 February 2011.
The goal of the collaboration is to promote R&D collaboration between (i) Polish based universities, and research institutes, and (ii) Singapore public sector research organizations including A*STAR RIs, through joint scientific projects, technology transfer, commercialization of research deliverables and encouraging training and staff exchange.
Under the initiative of 2011, A*STAR will fund projects that address critical technologies in the following areas:
- Disruptive Technologies; and
- Security in Cyberspace.
A panel of experts will review and identify proposals that are innovative, demonstrate a high level of scientific pursuit, challenge paradigms and set international benchmarks for funding consideration.
Eligibility
- This Call for Proposals is open to Singapore public sector research organizations, including A*STAR RIs.
- All Singapore-based researchers must have a collaborator in Poland who must concurrently submit the joint proposal to MSHE.
- Each research team must be made up of at least one Singapore-based researcher and one Poland-based researcher. The research project, which can last up to 3 years, must be conducted in Singapore and in Poland. A*STAR will fund the research costs of the Singapore-based researcher, while MSHE will fund the research costs of the Poland-based researcher. The total value of a combined grant award will typically be in the range of S$400,000 to S$1,000,000 (approximately €200,000 to €500,000).
Application Procedures
- Singapore-based researchers should apply to A*STAR and Poland-based researchers should separately apply to MSHE.
