The Irish Research Council for Science, Engineering and Technology (IRCSET) has unveiled a €10.8 million scheme which will fund the early career formation of new doctoral and masters researchers in the sciences, engineering and technology. The Postgraduate Scholarship Research Scheme (Second Call) will operate in 2008 under the Council’s Embark Initiative.
IRCSET’s multi-annual research funding programmes are aimed at knowledge creation for the future benefit of society and the economy. They are also aimed at retaining highly talented researchers and attracting new researchers to carry out their work in Ireland.
Professor Jane Grimson, Chair of The Irish Research Council for Science, Engineering and Technology, commented: “In the current economic climate, our ability to innovate is more important than ever. There is a wealth of research talent in Ireland and a strong desire by many graduates to pursue a research career in their chosen discipline in this country.”
