Scientific Employment

To avoid discontinuity in the work carried out by doctoral students covered by the transitional provision set out in Decree-Law 57/2016, amended by Law 57/2017, whose Studentships since ended, the FCT will consider eligible any expenses incurred by institutions to ensure the funding of these doctoral students. The guarantee of eligibility is supported by the order of the Minister of Science, Technology, and Higher Education, Manuel Heitor, available here.
