FCT announces the 2020 Call for PhD Research Scholarships
(Only Available in Portuguese)

The notice of opening of the FCT Call for the Award of Research Scholarships for Doctorate 2020 is now available. This year the number of scholarships to be awarded is 1350 and the application deadline will run from March 2 to 31, until 5 pm (Lisbon time).

This year applications are submitted on the myFCT portal, which is the new online system to manage the application process, evaluation and approval of scholarships. Last year FCT had already introduced the CIÊNCIAVITAE curriculum platform, a novelty that streamlined the process of organizing and submitting candidates' curricula.

PhD Research Grants are grants awarded competitively to support the training of scientists in all areas of knowledge in obtaining the academic degree of PhD. They allow researchers to dedicate themselves exclusively to their research, thus contributing to the country's scientific and technological development. FCT currently supports around 5,000 PhD scholarships.

The research activities to be carried out by candidates in the scope of the grants to be awarded in this competition can be carried out in any environment for the production and dissemination of knowledge, national or international. Host institutions can be higher education institutions, R&D units, Associated Laboratories, Collaborative Laboratories, Technological Interface Centers, State Laboratories and other public research institutions, hospitals and health care units, other entities within the Public Administration where R&D activities are developed, private non-profit institutions whose main object is R&D activities, companies whose activity has been recognized as of scientific interest or consortia in which any of these entities participate.
