About this position
This FNRS fellowship supports a full-time PhD project in Belgium and is open across all research areas. It is funded by the F.R.S.-FNRS, the public research funding body for the French-speaking part of Belgium, and is intended for doctoral research at one of five French-speaking Belgian universities: UCLouvain, ULB, ULiège, UMons or UNamur.
The award provides a monthly research fellowship and also includes a budget for research costs managed by the supervisor, helping to cover the practical needs of the project. The funding is structured to support the full doctoral period, with an initial award and the possibility of extension, and it can be adapted for applicants with a disability.
This opportunity is designed for a doctoral researcher who will carry out a PhD within the Belgian French-speaking academic research environment under the guidance of a permanent staff member at one of the eligible universities.

Approximately €2,925 per month for up to 4 years; initially awarded for 2 years and may be extended by up to 2 further years. Supervisor also manages a budget for research costs. Part-time study may extend the period up to 6 years for applicants with a disability.
What's required
Applicants must hold a Master’s degree comprising at least 120 ECTS credits, or be in the final year of such a programme. Degrees from Belgium, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania are recognised directly; other qualifications must be officially recognised and require proof of admission to a Belgian PhD programme. Applicants must have completed their degree no more than 4 years before the expiry date, with extensions possible for parents. The PhD must be undertaken at UCLouvain, ULB, ULiège, UMons or UNamur, and the supervisor must hold a permanent post at one of these institutions. The fellowship is open to all nationalities, applicants may apply no more than twice, and previous FNRS funding beyond 24 months makes applicants ineligible. During the scholarship, no other remuneration or teaching duties are allowed, except light supervisory duties averaging up to 8 hours per week over the year.

Apply once a year through the e-space online platform when the Grants and Fellowships Call opens. Validate the application by the stated deadline, then have your supervisor and the rector confirm it. Submit a CV, publication list, research project and details of two external scientific experts.
