Scholarship
Award: The
fellows are appointed for 12 months either by a stipend (an
agreement for a research training programme) or a working contract. The
type of contract and the monthly allowance (for stipends) or salary (for
working contracts) depends on the hosting institute. It should be noted
that the stipend (Fellowship Agreement) does not constitute a
contract of employment. As such, no contributions are made, on behalf of the
fellow, in respect of unemployment insurance or either state or private
retirement schemes. The fellow will not, therefore, be entitled to any
unemployment or retirement benefits under the Fellowship Agreement. For
the entire period of 12 months, the fellow will receive a monthly allowance or
salary (depending on the type of contract) which may vary depending on the
country. Costs for travelling to and from the institutes will be paid under
conditions determined by the contract. This allowance/salary will be
transferred to the fellow’s personal bank account.
