The Carnegie Mellon Portugal Program announces that the 2nd Call for Entrepreneurial Research Initiatives (ERIs) of the CMU Portugal Program, funded by the Portuguese Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia (FCT), will be open until December 16, 2014.
Four to seven Entrepreneurial Research Initiatives are expected to be funded. The maximum budget for Portuguese research institutions in each project will be € 650,000.00. The dual degree Ph.D. positions to be associated with each ERI will be awarded through future CMU Portugal Program Calls for Applications for Doctoral Program Scholarships, and accordingly, on the Portugal side, they will be funded directly by these future Calls for Doctoral Scholarships and not through the ERI budget. The announcement will be made on the FCT’s website.
