More possibilities (research funding)

The Honourable Schoolboy 
















Dear Colleagues,

Please announce among your contacts as appropriate.

FCT and LIP agreed to promote a program of PhD grants in high energy physics and related scientific and technological domains relevant for the Portuguese participation at the European Laboratory for Particle Physics, CERN and/or the corresponding transfer of knowledge to society. 

The 2nd Edition of the Call will open in September and two domains will be considered: 

       1) Particle and Astroparticle Physics and associated scientific domains; 

       2) Technologies associated to the Portuguese participation at CERN and their transfer to society. 

The maximum number of grants to be awarded in the present call will be nine, six with priority to the first domain and three with priority to the second domain. The grants may be national or mixed grants, depending on whether the work program is carried out totally or partially at national institutions. The granting of the scholarship will depend on the receipt of all required documents and is subject to the availability of FCT funding. 

Candidates who have previously received an identical type of FCT-funded fellowship or have been selected for a PhD grant in an FCT PhD Program may not apply.

PhD studentships will be granted to applicants that fulfil the requirements to join a study cycle that allows to obtain a PhD degree and wish to develop research work in high energy physics or related domains at a Portuguese University and hosted at LIP or at any national R&D centre with a protocol previously established with LIP under the Portugal - CERN PhD Grants Program. These grants will be supervised by a supervisor designed by the host institution and may be co-supervised by researchers from other institutions. In any case it is mandatory one of the supervisors has a link to a Portuguese University granting the academic degree, and in case of mixed grants one of the co-supervisors has to have a link to the foreign host institution.

If your institution doesn’t have such a protocol yet, please ask your Direction to contact LIP via idpasc.pt-cern@lip.pt to propose to establish one. A template of the protocol can be found at https://idpasc.lip.pt/files/pt_cern_grants/minute_agreement_PT-CERN-PhD-Grant.docx

This program is integrated in the scope of the IDPASC Doctoral Program in Particle Physics, Astrophysics and Cosmology.

The call will be open from ​21st September to 30​th​ November 2020
