In the framework of the discovery research funding programmes of the National Research, Development and Innovation Office, the call titled Research projects based on international cooperation (NN_17) received 48 project proposals with a total funding claim of HUF 1.7 billion. In addition to this, 38 proposals were submitted to the Slovenian sub-programme (SNN_17), and 8 proposals to the Austrian sub-programme (ANN_17) requesting altogether HUF 1.6 billion in domestic funding. Thus, the total amount claimed by the applicants exceeded by three times the total budget of HUF 1 billion available in this funding scheme.

The project proposals were assessed by anonymous experts and ranked by expert panels against the criteria published in the calls.

Accepting the recommendation of the decision preparation bodies, the President of the NRDI Office selected 16 international cooperation based project proposals for funding as follows: The results of the calls for project proposals implemented on the basis of cooperation with Slovenian and Austrian partners will be announced after the decisions of the co-funding organisations, the Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS) and the Austrian Science Fund (FWF).
