What is an Innovative Training Network (ITN)?

An ITN is a consortium that sets up a joint research and training programme for researchers at doctoral level. The researchers receive research training and are hired for periods from 3 to 36 months with the aim of completing a doctorate. Exchanges between the academic and non-academic sector are important. The ITN is expected to have a structuring effect on research and doctoral training in Europe that endures beyond the life of the project.
