Call for Proposals
Support for Unrated, Rated and Y-rated Research 2018
Applicant Closing Date: 31 May 2017
A. Competitive Programme for Unrated Researchers (CSUR)
The Competitive Support for Unrated Researchers is a discipline-based funding instrument which supports principally basic research as the foundation of knowledge production in the disciplines of the Humanities, Social and Natural Sciences.
As a competitive funding instrument, the chief eligibility criteria are:
- Unrated status of the principal applicant
- Scientific merit and quality of the research proposal
Existing or previous CSUR or existing Thuthuka grantholders may not submit an application in this call
B. Competitive Programme for Rated Researchers (CPRR)
The Competitive Programme for Rated Researchers (CPRR) is a highly competitive discipline-based funding instrument which supports both basic and applied research as the foundation of knowledge production in the disciplines of the Humanities, Social and Natural sciences.
As a competitive funding instrument, the chief eligibility criteria are:
· Valid NRF rating of the principal applicant
· Scientific merit and quality of the research proposal
New applicants to the Competitive Programme for Unrated Researchers and Competitive Programme for Rated Researchers are invited to:
· Submit applications in accordance with the strategy and eligibility criteria, as set out in the Call Framework documents for funding commencing 2018
· Submit ONLY ONE application per principal investigator. Additional applications will not be considered.
2016 APPLICANTS
In an effort to support as many fundable proposals across all fields and spectrum of researchers as possible, minimise duplication of effort and increase the country’s levels of international competiveness in research and innovation, the NRF would like to advise all those applicants who submitted proposals in the last round of the CPRR/CSUR call in 2016 for funding in 2017, and received communication that their research projects were fundable but could not be funded due to insufficient funds, not to re-apply/resubmit the same proposals for this call. Instead, NRF will in parallel to this call send personal communication to the above applicants (copied to their Designated Authorities) requesting them to confirm whether or not their research projects should still be considered for funding in 2018 in the final decision making process of this open 2017 call.
C. Research Development Grants for Y-Rated Researchers
The Research Development Grants for Y-Rated Researchers is a ring-fenced, once-off grants and competitive discipline-based funding instrument aimed at enhancing the efficiency of the NRF to drive our transformation consistently and strategically through supporting primarily basic research as the foundation of knowledge production in the disciplines of the Humanities, Social and Natural sciences.
As a competitive funding instrument, the chief eligibility criteria are:
- Valid NRF rating of the principal applicant
- Scientific merit and quality of the research proposal
New applicants to the Research Development Grants for Y-Rated Researchers are invited to:
- Submit applications in accordance with the strategy and eligibility criteria, as set out in the Call Framework document for funding commencing 2018
- Submit ONLY ONE application per principal investigator. Additional applications will not be considered.
