Prodoc Fellowships

Background

Note: PSC successfully completed the ProDoc doctoral program in 2012.

In 2009, the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) provided financial support to the PSC for the ProDoc Doctoral Program Plant Sciences and Policy. Initial program funding ended in 2012. Thereafter the Science & Policy program was continued as a regular PhD program of the PSC.

Program participants get the opportunity to complete a PhD in the plant sciences, and in addition they obtain specialized training at the interface of research and policy work.
Between 2009–2011, PSC members submitted research proposals to the program; 11 PhD projects were approved and funded.
