UniOGS now opens a call for applicants for funding (2500€/month) for a period of up to 6 months during the final year of doctoral training, leading to a doctoral degree from the University of Oulu in 2015. The maximum total funding allocated through this call is for 132 months, and is to be used during 2015. Applicants are required to have active doctoral study rights at the University of Oulu, be registered in UniOGS, and be in the final phase of their training, such that they can reasonably expect to complete the doctoral degree in 2015. Applicants selected to receive the funding are required to work full-time on the finalization of the doctoral degree during the period of funding.
