Research Grants / Scholarships

There are a number of possibilities for candidates to apply for (you are encouraged to try multiple applications):

  • FCT PhD grants (BD)

Every year, FCT announces open calls for regular PhD grants (referenced as BDs). Usually the call runs from May till June. Please refer to FCT website for dates and instructions on how to apply. We will update this information, as soon as the call is open.

  • FCT industrial partnership grants (BDE)

This possibility is open permanently. It is possible to apply directly to FCT for a PhD research grant involving an industrial partner. You will need a supervisor from MAP-fis, a company interested in supporting you and a research project that is of interest to all parties and suitable for a PhD. The value of a BDE grant is the same as the BD grants, but half of which is paid by the company involved in the research project. Please visit the FCT and ADI websites for more information on these scholarships.

  • Grants from Research Centres and projects

A number of faculty members participate in either National or European research projects. They are also members of research centres and laboratories. Many research projects and research institutions have their own funds for research grants. These opportunities have to be worked out case by case, but we expect to post soon a number of opportunities offered to MAP-fis candidates. Please refer to Research projects grants link.
