Funding for doctoral students

Doctoral student at work

Doctoral students are students - but they are also researchers. Under this page, you will find various funding instruments that support activities and structural measures related to doctoral research.

ETH Zurich and EPFL each year fund selected summer schools that are organised by doctoral students from the ETH Domain. This is a great tool to put together the perfect programme and to try out what it is like to organise a larger event. 

A number of technology companies regularly advertise so-called "PhD Fellowships" in the field of computer science, artificial intelligence and machine learning. Learn more about the PhD Fellowships form Technology Companies.

Please see the web area Doctorate for all questions concerning doctoral studies at ETH Zurich.
