Funding Opportunities for Phd Candidates
The main goal of the international component in researcher training at UiB is to add to the quality of the training. Increased quality can be added through the insight which international PhD candidates bring along with them to UiB or through the insight and experience UiB’s own PhD candidates bring with them from international milieus.
