| FINANCIAL INFORMATION |
|
|
You are required to register as a doctoral student at the University of Zurich
(280 CHF per term). The first year of the doctoral program requires a full-time
commitment to studies. To make this possible, Swiss Finance Institute provides
grants of SFR 2’700 net per month to admitted candidates. |
|
After this first year, as the course load lightens and the emphasis turns to
research, doctoral students are financed by teaching assistantships or research
grants offered by the University of Zurich and providing a wide range of
teaching and research experience. Typically our doctoral students have thus
secured financial support ranging from SFR 30’000 to SFR 60’000 on
an annual basis – with an average that we estimate at SFR 50’000
per year – while in the second phase of the program. |
|
| Working conditions |
|
|
Doctoral students are provided offices from the first year of the program on.
They also benefit of a wide range of first-class university facilities -
library, computers, sports facilities, etc.- provided by the University of
Zurich and the ETH Zurich. |
