Feature and warning
What this offers
FPU funds selected predoctoral employment contracts.
Check before applying
You need the appropriate work authorization before starting a job. A job-search residence permit is not a work permit.
Fees, funding, and visa rules change. Confirm current terms with the university or the government source before you apply.
