Summary
Turku Intersectoral Excellence Scheme (TIES) is an innovative fellowship programme that seeks to advance the state-of-the-art for postdoctoral research excellence. It is based within Turku Institute for Advanced Studies (TIAS) at the University of Turku (Finland) and is supported by Turku Science Park. TIAS has a record for producing world-class research and developing its fellows for research leadership roles. TIES offers:
• Scientific excellence: TIES integrates intersectoral perspectives and methods into TIAS’s interdisciplinary Institute for Advanced Studies model on a formal basis. This expands the horizons of academic research, enabling it to envision original solutions able to address complex issues that affect society as a whole.
• Career development: TIES offers a new range of options for non-tenured researchers, enabling them to move freely between sectors, acquire unique skills and experiences, increase their career choices and develop as intersectoral thought leaders.
• Innovation: TIES seeks to build a sustainable infrastructure for innovation by 1. enabling knowledge, technology and researchers to circulate freely at regional, national and international levels; 2. forging deep relations of trust between sectors, connecting intellectual excellence with the practical know-how and infrastructure needed to realise new concepts.
TIAS proposes to recruit 4 TIES fellows in 2022 and 2023 (8 positions in total) through an open, international, competitive, merit-based selection process dependent on external peer-review, in line with the European Charter and Code. These will be full members of TIAS, with excellent working conditions. During their 36-month fellowships, they will be required to practice international and intersectoral mobility, conduct research in a non-academic sector, undertake research secondments with a non-academic host organisation, and develop an individual development programme with mentors and supervisors from inside and outside academia.
