The Research Council of Finland funds research projects, doctoral researcher posts, and postdoctoral positions in Finland across many disciplines. Support is usually delivered through funded university positions rather than a single direct scholarship for all applicants.

Finland Government Scholarships and Finnish university waivers support international students applying for Master's study in Finland, while PhD study is generally tuition-free and often offered through salaried research positions.
