Modality

What types of funding support research?

Funding secured in research and transfer can be classified according to modality, that is, whether funds proceed from calls that are competitive, concerted or from UC3M internal funding. This section presents the breakdown of these funds distributed among the different Schools, as well as the University departments for the 2019-2020 yearly totals.

Source of funding

Where does funding for research and transfer come from?

Secured funding can be classified according to the sources from which the funds proceed: European programs, National programs, Regional programs, Contracts with Public Administrations, Contracts with Private Entities, Non-European International, Awards or UC3M Internal Research Program. This section shows how funding is distributed by source in the University Schools and the departments, so that they can be compared.
