To increase the collaboration between industry and academia, the Foundation for Strategic Research, SSF, is investing 30 million SEK in industrial doctoral students. SSF expects to grant 12 projects, up to SEK 2.5 million each. The grant runs during the training period for the doctoral students and must result in a doctoral degree.
The initiative applies to people who have not yet been admitted to postgraduate education. During the grant period, the doctoral student must conduct research and be at least 80 percent employed at a company, and have two supervisors, one at the university and one at the company. The money will cover funds for research and postgraduate education.
The main applicant is a supervisor for the doctoral student at the university. Co-applicant is the supervisor at the company. If the project includes clinical research, the company can be a hospital.
