Tips for this research opportunity
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Match your research background to the project, laboratory, supervisor and required methods rather than applying only from the title.
- Prepare a focused academic CV, transcripts, publications and research statement or proposal when requested by the official call.
- Confirm funding duration, stipend/salary, tuition coverage, start date and eligibility for international applicants.
- Contact a supervisor before applying only when the official instructions recommend or require it.
Verification notes
Verified on ETAG's current RITA+ call announcement. The original 17 September deadline was extended to 28 September 2026 at 17:00. ETAG states applications are submitted through ETIS and the form is opened after an informal request to ETIS support. No timezone is stated for 17:00, so only deadline_date is stored.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
