LLSH Doctoral School contracts (institutional contracts)

Funding your PhD studies
Each year, the doctoral school issues a call for applications for doctoral contracts.
The doctoral contract is a fixed-term contract between the State and a PhD student to allow the latter to devote himself/herself fully to his/her research work for the preparation of his/her thesis. It is valid for three years. It is a moral commitment of the future PhD student and his/her supervisor to the successful completion of the thesis through its defense.
