The initiative, funded by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), is aimed at students and future PhD candidates interested in developing research projects within the framework of the Unite! European University Alliance, of which the Instituto Superior Técnico is part through the University of Lisbon (ULisboa).
Students enrolled or eligible to enroll in a doctoral study program at ULisboa or one of the Alliance's partner institutions are eligible to apply: Technische Universität Darmstadt (Germany), Aalto University (Finland), KTH Royal Institute of Technology (Sweden), Grenoble Institute of Technology (France), Politecnico di Torino (Italy), Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (Spain), Graz University of Technology (Austria), and Wroclaw University of Science and Technology (Poland).
Projects will be developed under joint scientific supervision, with mandatory participation from a doctoral integrated member of the Unite! consortium and a supervisor designated by the host institution. Research will partially take place at one of the partner foreign universities for a maximum of 24 months.
Funding is provided by the Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT), under the collaboration protocol established with the University of Lisbon.
