KIC InnoEnergy Co-Funded Industrial Doctorate

The KIC InnoEnergy PhD School is launching the first round of its KIC InnoEnergy Industrial Doctorate (KID2016).

A KIC InnoEnergy Industrial Doctorate is a joint doctoral training project between KIC InnoEnergy, a company, an academic participant (university, research institution, etc.) and, optionally, a local/regional/national institution committed to the promotion of the industrial doctorate. The research project will be carried out at a company, where PhD candidates will further develop their research training in collaboration with a university, and which is the object of a doctoral thesis addressing at least one of the KIC InnoEnergy Energy Challenges. KIC InnoEnergy will complete the funding provided by the local/regional/national institution in order to cover the cost of the salary.

The benefit for you is to boost the innovation by having a PhD candidate committed to innovation. At the end it could be possible to leverage the Industrial Doctorate results by further participating to a KIC InnoEnergy Innovation Project.

The first step launched today is for project submission. This round will close on May, 31.

You will find a complete description and the submission documents on our website www.kic-innoenergy.com/education/phd-school/kic-innoenergy-industrial-doctorate-projects
