DL 57/2016 Transitional Rule

Under Decree-Law no. 57/2016 in its current wording, institutions with doctoral fellows who have been working in public institutions, or who have been financed by public funds, for more than three years, consecutive or interpolated, had to open two competitive procedures for hiring doctoral researchers. The first procedure should be opened as soon as possible, and the second before August 31, 2018.

Whenever the Studentship that gave rise to the position to be contracted has been funded directly or indirectly by the FCT for more than three years, consecutive or interpolated, the FCT will assume the costs of contracting, regardless of the candidate selected, by signing a program contract with the institution. Entities that are host institutions for these grant recipients have notified the FCT of their grant recipients that gave rise to these positions.

The information sent to the FCT on the implementation of the transitional rule by the different institutions covered, only with regard to contracts to be funded by the FCT, is updated on this page.
