A doctoral scholarship is a stipend that is mandatory for doctoral students at a doctoral school. Therefore, competitions for doctoral scholarships are also competitions for admission to the Doctoral School for a four-year period of education. National regulations determine the minimum scholarship amount and associated social security contributions.
This page publishes all announcements of doctoral scholarship competitions organized by the Doctoral School of the University of Silesia.
A research scholarship is an additional scholarship that may be awarded to a person with doctoral student status (sometimes also student status). This means that only doctoral students who are already at the doctoral school may participate in these competitions. A research scholarship is awarded for performing tasks assigned under a grant or other project. The amount and duration of this scholarship can vary significantly and are determined by the funding institution (e.g., the National Science Center).
This page is not a complete collection of research scholarship competition announcements. The Doctoral School does not organize these competitions; it only shares content provided by the organizer (e.g., the relevant department).
