EIT Culture and Creativity – Talent Scaler (Call 1)

Summary

EIT Culture and Creativity has announced the launch of the call “Talent Scaler (Call 1)” for the submission of proposals.

Through the development of EIT labelled Master’s programmes financed through this Call, students will be given the tools and skills necessary to advance and future proof the European Culture and Creativity Sector and Industry (CCSI). Each programme should be based on the integration of the three sides of the Knowledge Triangle: education, research, and business/innovation. Accordingly, they should have a strong focus on creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurship and build on a set of specific quality criteria and overarching learning outcomes.

Detailed Call Description

The call is divided into the following strands:

Strand 1: Enhancement of existing Master’s programmes

New curricula (i.e., a sequence of courses, education activities, etc. leading to a degree in a programme) developed within existing Master’s programmes by developing and implementing new, relevant modules, i.e., activities that confer ECTS credits. The new modules should focus on building capacity and transversal skills of students in the following areas:

  • Future skills and new technologies
  • Societal transformation and sustainability through CCSI
  • Ethical and sustainable entrepreneurship in CCSI
  • Creativity as skill for innovation.

Strand 2: New Master’s programmes

New Master’s programmes linking sustainability, aesthetics and inclusiveness inspired by the New European Bauhaus values, with innovation, business and entrepreneurship capacity. The programmes promote hybrid learning experience (blended mode, curricular placements, education outside the classroom opportunities, etc.). The call will support new Master’s programmes that build capacity and transversal skills of students in one or more of the following areas:

  • Creative practices and new technologies
  • Societal transformation and sustainability through design and the arts
  • Ethical and sustainable entrepreneurship in the arts, digital and design

For both strands, the resulting Master’s programmes must be two years and 120 ECTS in length and must include study periods in two countries.

The maximum grant per project is:

  • For Strand 1: € 300 000 per year, for three years (2024-2026)
  • For Strand 2: € 500 000 per year, for four years (2024-2027)

Call Total Budget

The total available budget for 2024 under the present call is € 1 400 000. Further details in the detailed text.
