Concurso Doutor AP – 1.ª edição

The Doutor AP is a programme that promotes research and scientific capacity in the public sector, supporting workers with doctoral projects relevant to the mission of their institutions. It provides a subsidy to support time for research (between 20% and 50%) and covers tuition, enrolment and fees for each academic year, with a duration linked to the reduction of work time, up to a maximum of six years. The total investment for this call is about 4.95 million euros, funded by the State Budget and, where eligible, European Social Fund revenues through the PDQI programme.
