Purpose
RECRUIT is a mobility grant aiming to strengthen Danish universities in the international competition for top researchers and talents and to build strong ecosystems within the areas of support.
The grants support the recruitment of researchers at the assistant-, associate-, or full-professor level. All candidates for the RECRUIT programme must be nominated by a Danish university. A nomination quota for RECRUIT is allocated to each Danish university.
Candidates for RECRUIT must be considered excellent at their career level.
The candidate’s research focus must lie within the strategic research areas of the Natural and Technical Sciences or Biotechnology and Sustainability of the Novo Nordisk Foundation (see Areas of Support in the Guidelines for applicants).
