Head of European research projects; European research project manager
Description
The European Union increasingly allocates more budget to aid programmes for R&D (research and development). Project management, despite being a relatively new discipline, is becoming an essential part of public and private institutions to ensure successful and satisfactory execution of projects (achieving results on time, within budget and with the expected quality), with special attention to the specificity of European R&D partnerships and their particular features. The goal of European partnership managers is to lead and coordinate projects framed within the European Commission in the area of research. They are responsible for aiding in the preparation of the study synopsis and for ensuring that the work plan is being fulfilled within the parameters of quality, budget and timing outlined in the scientific report of the project.

The main aim of the life and health sciences is to promote the health of living beings. As part of this mission, the industry brings together different fields ranging from healthcare to the pharmaceutical industry. Technology and innovation play an important role in facilitating progress towards a better quality of life. Healthcare is responsible for the medical and clinical care received by people to overcome illnesses or to guarantee their autonomy and quality of life. Animal health is also included under this bracket.
