phd scholarships

PhD scholarships are mainly linked to the execution of a specific research topic in the context of PNRR funding or on a free topic

The gross annual amount of the scholarship is usually € 15,343.28, but the Politecnico di Torino has chosen to further enhance and promote the value of PhD programmes, increasing the amount of the scholarships to € 18.854,52 which amounts to a net monthly rate of € 1386.

All candidates, unless explicitly renounced, compete for scholarships on open topics (if available).

All grants financed by PNRR funds are linked to the execution of a specific research topic.

The scholarships with predefined research topic are associated to particular research topics for which specific skills are required. Those applicants interested in one or more scholarships shall carefully verify which the field of research and the competences are required, as specified in the scholarship descriptive sheet and contact the relevant scientific referee.

The choice of the scholarship (or to waive the right to receive any) shall be made via Apply from 5 days before the beginning of the interviews for the selected PhD programme, up to 12.00 pm (midday - CET) of the day before the beginning of the interview session.

Politecnico di Torino encourages applications from female candidates to promote gender balance in STEAM and equal opportunities, in line with the priorities of the National Resilience and Recovery Plan (PNRR) and the objectives of the Politecnico's Gender Equality Plan. Here is the welcome message from the Rector's Advisor for Gender Equality and Diversity Prof.ssa Arianna Montorsi.
