Frequently asked questions
What is an institute scholarship page?
A programme overview for doctoral training at a university or research institute: typical fields, funding context, and eligibility — not a single timed job ad.
What is an Open PhD position?
A concrete doctoral vacancy with a project description, host, and application deadline. Use it when you are ready to apply to a specific call.
Can both exist for the same institute?
Yes. Many institutes have a standing scholarship/programme page and separate open calls when projects are funded. Browse both, then apply only via the official call link.
