Nebrija ResearchResearch Grants

Staff mobility has always been a facet intrinsically related to research activity. The need for mobility, together with the financing of personnel and the purchase of assets, has been one of the traditional motivations for obtaining competitive projects that will provide the necessary funds for the development of this research work. Traditionally, attending research conferences was considered one of the fundamental actions within the scientific production process, through which one could present and subsequently publish the work carried out. Although this facet has recently lost much of the importance that it traditionally had, due to the current orientation (motivated by quality agencies) to publish in indexed magazines, it is true that it is still necessary to travel for networking reasons (which are fundamental these days) and exposure to other work environments.

In this circumstance, the Antonio de Nebrija University believes it is important to support research groups in their mobility actions, encouraging those that promote quality research. For this reason, the present call for grants is established, which will be opened for each academic year, intended for research-related trips, managed by the Vice Rector's Office for Research through its OTRI (Research Results Transfer Office). Starting from the importance of mobility, it is necessary to point out that the recurring and permanent financing of these actions by the University is not the definitive solution to this need. In an ideal scenario, one of the priority objectives of the research groups is the self-financing of their execution costs, among which are the costs derived from mobility. This scenario is the one contemplated in most research-oriented universities, where it is mandatory that every group periodically obtain funds to support their activity.

Call for 2021-22 academic year

• Duration: The grants will be valid during the academic year where they were awarded, from September 1, 2021 to August 31, 2022.

Nebrija University, from the Vice Rector's Office for Research, open calls for grants for researchers to carry out the pre-evaluation of the six-year period application.

These grants, managed through the OTRI, will be convened annually at the beginning of each course, so that the pre-evaluation of the researchers' CVs can be carried out with sufficient time, before the publication of the CNEAI-ANECA official call for the submission of six-year period applications. These official calls are published in December of each year.

The pre-evaluation can be carried out with any specialized consultancy on this topic.

1.- Objective of the grants

Nebrija University calls for incentives for authors of scientific articles in high-impact journals for all areas of knowledge. The objective of these grants is to enhance the academic excellence of faculty publications and to internationalize the scientific production of Nebrija University.

The aid will consist of a bonus for each publication (article) in a high-impact scientific journal.

For social sciences, humanities and the arts, the journal must belong to the A+ Excellence group of CIRC. These journals have international prestige and a high impact in their respective categories, being reference magazines in their corresponding disciplines.

The consultation of the journals can be done through this link: clasificacioncirc.es

For science and engineering, journals must belong to the First quartile (Q1) of the JCR.

2.- Functioning of the call (*)

The call is open from June 8, 2016 and will remain permanently open.

To participate, you will need to be a professor at Nebrija University and have published in one of the journals mentioned above. It will be a condition that Nebrija be the affiliation unit that appears in the publication for each of the authors who request the grant.

Each author should individually submit a request after the publication of the article. To do so, authors are required to notify the Vice-Rector for Research by forwarding the request to OTRI. Submissions can be made through the Universitas XXI portal, accessible via the PDI/PAS services on the Nebrija website, or directly through this link.

+ Information

(*) Publications in journals that appear on the list of “predatory” journals or of which the scientific community has evidence of a lack of good practices will be excluded from this incentive. To this end, the OTRI (Research Results Transfer Office) may request reports from the Nebrija Research Ethics Commission; as well as external evaluators whose unfavorable assessment will determine the loss of the right to receive the corresponding incentive. Likewise, the Vice Rector's Office for Research, through the OTRI, reserves the right to establish a limit on the number of articles for incentives by an author in the same journal and year (for example, when they appear in the same monograph, etc.) in order not to undermine the purpose of this incentive.

The Strategic Plan of the Antonio de Nebrija University contemplates the need for scientific and academic improvement of the University's teaching and research staff. The Antonio de Nebrija University wants to promote the collaboration of researchers and their research groups with other prestigious universities and research centers, in order to promote the exchange of ideas and knowledge, and to establish contacts that lead to research networks, coordinated projects and scientific collaborations. Likewise, conducting research stays abroad in research centers of recognized prestige is part of the merits that are becoming increasingly important in the calls for accreditation of professors of Quality Agencies, in addition to being a key experience in the career of teaching and research staff.

For all these reasons, the vice rector's office for research annually announces a grant program for short research stays for a minimum period of 1 month and a maximum of 3 months.
