Funded PhD candidates at the OMDS
Funded PhD candidates obtain a university- or third-party funded position (“praedoc”) at the University of Vienna under the supervision of a Principal Investigator of the OMDS. As OMDS members, you benefit from the supervisory structure of the doctoral school, organize and/or take part in cohort-related activities, and can apply for additional funding for research and travel expenses.
Step 1
Application for an Open Position
Praedoc positions will be announced in pooled and individual calls of the OMDS.
Step 2
Application for Admission to the PhD Program
Please note: Even if you have obtained a praedoc position (i.e., you are employed) at the University of Vienna or are doing your doctorate within the framework of a scholarship or funded project, you must apply for admission to the doctoral program. This does not happen automatically.
