Results
The common denominator of all the Networking actions is the improvement of knowledge for the preparation of proposals, the expansion of the network of contacts to promote the formation of consortia and the increase of the visibility of the University.
The participation in specific seminars on focused topics allows the Office in particular and the University in general to improve the preparation of the proposals to be submitted to the different programmes, which are increasingly competitive, and also to improve the management of the projects once they have been awarded.
Being prepared and positioning the Universidad de Murcia for the new Horizon Europe Programme (2021-2027) is one of the institution's priorities at the moment, which is why the presence of the UMU in the events organised at national and international level on this subject is so important, as they increase visibility in community actions linked to research, the formation of European consortiums and contacts with the Commission.
