The Cooperative Doctoral Programme (hereinafter: KDP) aims to increase the number of employees working in the RDI segment, primarily in mathematics, science, engineering and information technology, who are ready to extend their knowledge with the latest scientific research findings and committed to making use of their expertise to the benefit of society and the economy.
The KDP 2020 call provides support to doctoral students who are also engaged in research outside the academia, thus contributing to the practical utilisation of their scientific results.
Altogether 536 applications were submitted in the application period, and after assessment against the formal requirements, 446 of them were sent on for peer review. As a result of the scientific assessment, on the proposal of the Cooperative Doctoral Council and as approved by the Ministry for Innovation and Technology, a total of 246 awardees in 18 higher education institutions received scholarship, which greatly exceeded the originally planned number of 100 persons.
The total awarded amount reached HUF 8,673,399,600, distributed among the grantees, the supervisors, the corporate experts and the doctoral schools involved in the projects.
