Open Research Grant (ORG)
The Open Research Grant (ORG) is a national research program adopted by The Research Council (TRC) to allocate small-to-medium size research grants to short-term and mid-term research projects within the fields of sciences and humanities.
The main goal of the program is to expand and enhance research capacity in the Sultanate. To achieve this, the program supports the creation of teams and networks of researchers and assists young graduates with financial support for their postgraduate research work.
Application Criteria
Applications are open to institutions and individuals, Omani and Oman-based.
TRC uses two sets of criteria to evaluate ORG submissions:
- Excellence is evaluated by specialized peer reviewers
- Relevance is evaluated by committee members
