SESAR WP-E First Call for Tenders for Projects

SESAR WP-E First Call for Tenders for Projects

July 16th, 2010

Closing date: October 26th 2010

The SESAR Work Programme includes a work package, WP-E, specifically devoted to long-term and innovative research. This operates through open calls for tender for its two instruments, Research Networks and Research Projects.

Research Networks are groupings of academia, research centres and industry sharing common interest and expertise that enables them to establish a body of knowledge and competence on a particular theme.

Research Projects explore ideas for the long-term as well as innovations that may be applicable in the short- or mid-terms.

Both Research Networks and Research Projects focus on a specific set of research topics described in the WP-E Thematic Programme. See http://www.sesarju.eu/programme/workpackages/wpe for more on WP-E and for a downloadable copy of the Thematic Programme.
