24 PhD fellowships in Mathematical Sciences in France, starting in fall 2025. Deadline for application is February 14th, 2025.

The main specificity of the programme is the requirement that each PhD thesis is done in co-supervision between a university in the Paris region https://mathphdinfrance.fr/en/participating-laboratories-81.htm (Île-de-France) and one in a French region outside Île-de-Francehttps://mathphdinfrance.fr/en/participating-laboratories-81.htm. Key features of the programme Here are the main features of the programme :

* Co-supervision: each fellow will have two PhD supervisors, one in the Paris region and the other elsewhere in France. The fellow will be enrolled in one of the two universities (a preference can be indicated by the fellow at the time of application at Step 2) and she/he will benefit from the doctoral school and the doctoral training institute of the university in which he/she registers. The fellow will be in close contact with the supervisor and the co-supervisor, and will visit his/her co-supervisor on a regular basis. * 3-I secondments mobility: fellows are expected to spend 2 months of mobility (during the 3 years of the PhD). * Full living allowance: fellows will receive a full living allowance slightly superior to the French normalized PhD salary (about 2300 euros gross, which is about 1850 euros per months net, including national health care) * Travel expenses: travel to the co-supervision site will be reimbursed up to 350 euros per month.

In addition, each fellow will benefit from dedicated conferences and workshops, including training sessions for professional insertion, and involved in a « learning by doing » approach. A detailed presentation of the program is available in the Guide For Applicants.https://mathphdinfrance.fr/upload/Contenu/GuideForApplicants_MPIF_Call%202.pdf Timing and main information for the second call (2024-2025)

The selection procedure goes in two steps, see again the guide for applicants for more details:

Step 1 (deadline February 14th, 2025): Candidates will have to provide documents and fill specific information online, mainly:

* Motivation letter. * Recommendation letters (maximum 3 letters). * Curriculum vitae with complete track record. * Master grade certificates (all grades available at the date of submission) and master diploma if already obtained. * A scientific document where applicants describe their research interests, and their ideas for PhD projects if they already have some (maximum 2 pages).

Note that it is not necessary to be already in contact with a French university or supervisor to apply to Step 1. The main criterion is the quality of the candidate, however the personal motivation and research interests/project ideas will also be evaluated.

Applications must be submitted in English
