The preferred method is to include recommendation letters in your application.
However, if institutional confidentiality policies require recommendation letters to be «closed letters», referees can send them directly to info@ramonllull-aira.eu, indicating in the subject line the research topic code and the name of the candidate.
This ensures the letters are properly linked to your application.
Yes, you can include multiple secondments in your application. The call requirements specify: 1) At least one secondment is required, lasting between 1 and 3 months; 2) The total duration of all secondments combined must not exceed 12 months.
It is essential to clearly justify your choice of secondments and their duration in your research proposal. A well-reasoned explanation will strengthen your application.
Yes, there is no limit to the number of applications you can submit.
You may apply for multiple positions across different research themes, as well as submit multiple applications within the same theme if distinct research tracks under different supervisors are mentioned in the description.
Additionally, for each research proposal, you can list up to three Principal Investigators (PIs) in order of preference. This ensures that if your first-choice PI is unavailable, your application may still be considered for your second or third-choice PI.
Yes, you can propose a secondment with a partner that is not currently listed as an Associated Partner. This will not negatively impact the evaluation of your research proposal.
If you are awarded the fellowship, CVC-CERCA, as the beneficiary and coordinator of the Ramon Llull – AIRA Postdoctoral Programme, will be responsible for formalizing an agreement with the host institution for the secondment. This process will be managed internally and will not affect your contract or work.
The application deadline for this call is 20 February 2025, 23:59 CET. We recommend submitting your application as early as possible to ensure all required materials are received in time.
If you have any further questions or need assistance with your application, please don’t hesitate to contact us at info@ramonllull-aira.eu.
