Grants for research internships in the USA designed for master’s students, doctoral students, and junior researchers (with a PhD for no longer than 3 years) from Portuguese institutions.
To contribute to the strengthening of the Portuguese academic and scientific community, FLAD awards grants to master’s students, doctoral students, and junior researchers (with a PhD for no longer than 3 years), from Portuguese institutions, to develop research internship programs in academic and scientific institutions in the USA.
Internships will last 4 months or more.
These internships should focus on innovative scientific or technological issues, while also contributing to a greater alignment between Portuguese and American institutions in hope of reinforcing the knowledge network shared by the two countries and thus facilitating the creation of institutional partnerships.
This FLAD grant provides support to a maximum of €1,500/month.
