Scholarships and scholarship related increases

1. PH.D. scholarship

NASP PhD Programmes provide Ph.D. students with a scholarship of about 16,350 € gross per year.

2. Increase of the scholarship amount for periods of research abroad

Those who accomplish a period of research abroad have the right to a 50% increase of the scholarship for the period spent abroad. This increase is available from first to third year, for periods longer than 10 days and up to 12 months. The scholarship increase is granted only on Ph.D. Director (or supervisor) agreement. For the increase to be activated, the student has then to send a formal request to the offices of the University granting the scholarship.

3. Research budget for first, second and third year (10%)

Every year, doctoral students may have access to a research budget amounting up to 10% of the yearly scholarship. The use of the budget is granted only on Ph.D. Director (or supervisor) agreement. For this purpose, the student has then to send a formal request to the Department of the University that issues the scholarship.

Financial aids

1. Teaching activities outside Milan

For teaching activities planned outside Milan, a reimbursement for travel, accommodation and food costs may be provided (upon presenting original receipts and tickets) for a maximum established by the NASP GS on the basis of fundings available.

2. Travelling and accommodation support programmes

NASP allows for the activation of support programmes concerning expenses for travelling to and accommodation in Milan for national and international students for the first year only. These programmes, however, can be activated only on Ph.D. programme funds availability. NASP actively looks for funds every year. Communication about the activation of the above mentioned support programmes will be sent as soon as those funds are available.
