LANEF Predoc Program for Nanosciences & Energies – in Grenoble (FRANCE)
Référence : BC0857
LANEF is a Grenoble-based network of 5 high-level laboratories involved in Nanosciences and Energies. Its predoc program aims to welcoming talented students in their second year of master – and help them build their thesis project in our labs.

DESCRIPTION DU PROGRAMME

LANEF is pursuing a new scholarship program designed to support excellent students who want to do the 2nd year of their Master degree (M2) at the University Joseph Fourier (Grenoble, France) with the goal of pursuing a PhD thesis on a topic developed within one of the 5 LANEF laboratories.
In 2015, two €8000 grants are available to cover a 10 month stay, starting from September 2015, including the lab internship.

The program is open to highly talented and motivated students of any nationality, with a background in physics, engineering, chemistry, biology and mathematics, with a strong interest in the one of the research fields of LANEF. French candidates must have already studied/worked abroad for at least two years, including the 1st year of their Master (M1).
Candidates applying during their M1 must have successfully completed their M1 before July 2015. Candidates with a qualification equivalent to M1 (e.g. Engineering degree) may also apply. Applicants must be fluent in either French or English, depending on the M2 program chosen, and must make contact with the director of the relevant M2 program.

Pre-selection will be based on evaluation of academic results, recommendation letters, and adequacy of the candidate’s scientific interests.

Pre-selected candidates will have to find a scientific supervisor in one of the 5 laboratories of LANEF in order to establish a research project for the M2 internship that has the potential to be extended into a PhD thesis project. The applicants are encouraged to contact a scientist in a LANEF laboratory in the field of their interest at an early stage of their application.

MONTANT/PRESTATIONS

A grant is worth €8000 – to be split in 2 during the 10 month stay (including internship) in Grenoble.
