Call for applications for the ESF PLUS - PhD Scholarship Program at TUD

The aim of the funding program is to exploit the individual educational potential of academic specialists, especially women, by expanding their skills with regard to a stable, green, sustainable and digital economy in the Free State of Saxony. Academic specialists are to gain improved entry opportunities into Saxony's science and industry through qualification within the framework of a doctorate.  Funding is provided for projects aimed at qualifying young academics through research work as part of doctorates.

The following forms of doctorate can be funded:

• Federal innovation doctorates that explore topics of special interest for the Free State of Saxony and are expected to have an impact on the Saxon labor market.
• Industry-sponsored doctorates that do have a common interest with the involved third parties (companies, research institution) situated in the Free State of Saxony and the TU Dresden.
  (It is sufficient if the companies or research institutions maintain an operating or research facility in Saxony. The headquarters of the company/institution can be located outside the program area.)
• Doctorates improving the reconcilability of scientific career and family that serve the continuation of the doctorate after a family-related interruption of academic research. Family-related interruptions within the terms of the guideline are interruptions of at least six months to take parental leave or to care for relatives in need of care. Proof must be submitted with the application.
• Combination of industry-sponsored doctorate and doctorate improving the reconcilability of scientific career and family. Corresponding proof of eligibility for funding for both forms of doctoral studies must be submitted with the application.
