Funding
Full-time scholarships are assigned to the best applicants on a competitive basis. Each scholarship amounts to €17,500 gross per year (€15,503 net) and is paid on a monthly basis. The scholarships have a yearly validity and they are automatically renewed conditional on student’s admission to the following year.
The monthly amount of the scholarship is increased by 50% during visiting periods aborad to other academic institutions of no less than 1 month and no more than 6 months.
All admitted students receive additional research funds (10% of the gross per year amount of the scholarship) for carrying out research-related activities (i.e., attending conferences, workshops, summer or winter schools).
