Apply for funding for the development of the doctoral education in 2025

Published Mar 12, 2025

In the ABE school's budget for 2025, SEK 1.5 million is set aside in a ‘doctoral education fund’ that the Director of Third Cycle Education (FA) can allocate to development projects within the doctoral education, such as the development of courses, collaborations with other universities, etc.
Programme Directors, in collaboration with the Head of Department, now have the opportunity to apply from the fund.

The ABE school has six doctoral programmes and each programme can apply for one sixth of the funds, i.e. SEK 250,000 each. In cases where one or more programmes choose not to apply for funds, these funds are distributed across all programmes, based on the number of active doctoral students. The funds need to be used during 2025.

Please note that funds are not intended to finance working hours for doctoral students.

Application


The Programme Director, in collaboration with the Head of Department, sends the application with the following information (approx. 1 page):

  • Purpose and concept of the development project
  • What results are expected
  • People involved in the project
  • Simple budget

The application must be sent by email to ledningsstod@abe.kth.se  no later than Wednesday 9 April 2025.

Reporting
