QATAR National Research Fund (QNRF), a member of Qatar Foundation, has announced the launch of the Researchers Exchange and Mobility Program (REMP).
The new programme is designed to help students and employees build their employability skills and strengthen their research capabilities through international research collaborations.
The programme aims to raise the interdisciplinary research profile of Qatar by focusing on the four pillars of the Qatar National Research Strategy (QNRS): energy and environment; computer science and ICT; health; and social sciences, arts and humanities.
Dr Abdul Sattar al Taie, executive director of QNRF, said: “We strive to encourage our researchers to tackle and overcome the major research challenges that are present not only in the region, but around the world. To that end, research institutions globally are advancing innovative technologies and building knowledge to address these challenges, and through the REMP, we want our local talent to be at the centre of these efforts.
“I am certain that this new programme will be received with a lot of enthusiasm by Qatar’s academic and research community as well as our students who will make the most out of this novel opportunity.”
Along with building the research culture in Qatar, the programme will also help cement relations of local researchers and institutions with the international research and development network.
The call for applications opened on October 8 and will conclude on November 18. QNRF has urged interested Qatari nationals and eligible residents to apply for the course.
