Programs of the Science Fund (hereinafter referred to as: SF) are devised to support research activities, including basic and applied scientific research and their commercial use and potential, as well as to boost technological development of the Republic of Serbia.
The programs of the SF are driven by scientific excellence and quality. They are realized through thematic public calls for project proposals. Projects are funded in the form of grants through public competition. The projects are expected to result in high-level research, innovative results, competitiveness at the international level, and relevance to society in general.
As a rule, the evaluation is performed by international experts, who are carefully selected based on their outstanding results in research, experience in project participation and coordination, and experience in review of project proposals. The evaluation criteria are specific to each program, but they are always focused on excellence, impact, and implementation of the proposed projects.
The evaluation process is performed through Project Proposal Evaluation Module – evaluatoRS which is accessed at this LINK.
