Scholarships, Funding, and Tuition Fees

PhD Scholarship and research/training funding

The top-ranked admitted candidates will receive a financial support package which includes a net yearly grant of approximately 15.725 € (40th and 41st cycles)  or 17.400 € (from 42nd cycle) to cover living expenses over the 3 years of the programme.

All admitted candidates will receive a contribution equal to 10% of the research scholarship to cover their research-related expenses. Depending on the funding source of the Scholarship (internal, or external) the budget may be either:

  1. (externally funded) allocated since the beginning of your PhD and available to the PhD Course Coordinator, or
  2. (internally funded) made available by the PhD Supervisor from its own funds.

Furthermore, a grant will be available if they spend a visiting period abroad up to six months, corresponding to a net increase of the scholarship by 50% for the months spent abroad.
