WEL-T INVESTIGATOR PROGRAMME CALL 2024

The FRFS and the WEL Research Institute opened the second “WEL-T Investigator Programme” call, funded by the Walloon region, for strategic research of excellence in engineering, chemistry and physics with a view to developing breakthrough innovations for industrial applications aimed at sustainable transition.  This programme is open to researchers from the universities of the Wallonia-Brussels Federation who are either established (Advanced grants, max. €350,000/year) or at the beginning of their career (Starting grants, max. €200,000/year).

Context of the call:

The WEL-T (Walloon ExceLlence in Technology) funding instrument corresponds to a strategic axis of the FRFS and a department of the WEL Research Institute.  Through this instrument, Wallonia grants significant resources over several years to WEL-T Investigators within the WEL Research Institute to develop ambitious research programs that will lead to major scientific breakthroughs. These programmes represent a pillar of the Investigators' laboratory and are flexible so the research scope can be adapted over time as needed. The Investigators within the WEL Research Institute must demonstrate a combination of scientific excellence, an awareness of unmet needs in sustainable transition in their field, and a willingness to seek opportunities to translate their results into social and economic impact.

Timetable:  

  • Opening of the call : 17 September 2024
  • Deadline for PI’s electronic validation : 7 November 2024
  • Evaluation process : December 2024 – April 2025
