FCT updated the value of Studentships Research for 2022

All the Studentships research activities covered by the Regulation Studentships FCT Research Council were updated for 2022 with an increase of R$40.00 in the value of the monthly maintenance allowance. This update is effective from January 1, 2022, so that scholarship holders directly funded by the FCT will receive retroactive amounts in their March payment.

This annual update of the amount of monthly maintenance subsidies for Studentships of investigation results from the Regulation of Studentships FCT Research Institute, taking into account any changes that occur in the value of the guaranteed minimum monthly remuneration (minimum wage) each year.

For 2022, the minimum wage was set at R$705.00, corresponding to an increase of R$40.00 compared to the amount for 2021. The FCT Board of Directors, in a meeting on January 31, 2022, decided to set this value for updating the Studentships , also deciding its application to all scholarship holders covered by types of Studentships provided for in previous regulations, whose Studentships are still running in 2022.
