The University of Aveiro (UA) has opened a call for applications for 8 doctoral scholarships funded by FCT under the ECIU University Collaboration Protocol and 10 doctoral scholarships funded by UA.

FCT-ECIU scholarships

These are intended to fund research activities leading to a doctoral degree at the University of Aveiro, carried out in collaboration or on a co-tutorial basis with any of the other universities that integrate the ECIU consortium, being the UA the host institution. The research activities should promote the creation of synergies between the consortium partners and boost the sharing of research environments between the entities involved.

The period of the work plan that takes place in one or more foreign institutions cannot be less than 12 or more than 24 months, consecutive or interpolated. If the work programme takes place in more than one foreign institution, the minimum period in one of these institutions may not be less than 12 months.
