Applications to the ENP Graduate Program 2013 will open on November 1st, 2012 and will close on January 14th, 2013. Only online application will be considered www.paris-neuroscience.fr/

The program, which is open to outstanding international students, primarily trained abroad, lasts four years and leads to a PhD in Neuroscience. French or foreign students who obtained their last University degree in France are not eligible.

Working language throughout is English. For those interested, French courses are proposed at the beginning of the academic year.

The first year is funded directly by an ENP fellowship. Additional financial support may also be provided by ENP for specific needs linked to settling in Paris. The following three years are financed by the ENP and other funds. This is specified in the yearly call to which students apply. The origin of funds may evolve from year to year, depending on the Graduate Program partner institutions, but funding is guaranteed for 3 years once a student is admitted into Years 2-4.

The ENP provides administrative support for settling in Paris (visa, housing, social security, medical and other insurances, university registration).
