Projet SyMeCo (Horizon Europe, appel à projets 2021)
Action : Cofund Postdoctoral programme
Statut du projet : SIGNED

SyMeCo (Systems, Methods, Context) proposes a transformative agenda, one that is cognisant of the changing landscape of software development, while seeking to shape it. The key research strands explore what we build (Systems), how we build these systems (Methods), for the world we want (Context). The 60-month research training programme will fund 16 postdoctoral fellowships at Lero, and will incorporate international mobility, intersectoral exposure, and interdisciplinarity. Lero is Ireland’s Research Centre for Software, headquartered at the University of Limerick (UL, Beneficiary), with partners in other Irish universities and institutes of technology. The Implementing Partners will be University College Cork, University College Dublin, Dublin City University, National University of Galway and Trinity College Dublin. The ten Associated Partners are drawn from Lero’s extensive Industry network and comprise a mixture of multi-national corporations and SMEs. The programme aims to attract researchers from the fields of computer science, software engineering, information systems, human-computer interaction and business management. During their 2-year fellowship, fellows will receive discipline-specific skills training to assist career development and will be provided with a comprehensive set of courses to improve their transferrable skills to diversify their employment options. Fellows will also avail of a 4-day Summer School incorporating the themes of Systems, Methods, Context with one day dedicated to Industry & Entrepreneurship. Trained fellows will be attractive to industry, the public sector or academia. The SyMeCo research training programme will produce the next generation of European leaders in software development that will have the skills to help in Shaping Europe’s Digital Future and contribute to the newly launched European Declaration on Digital Rights and Principles. This proposal seeks €1.52 million EC funding to match Lero co-funding of €1.38 million.
