I ve just graduated from Chemical Engineering Department of Greece, and as i am looking for a Phd abroad, i have a question about Phd funding. Is is true that 4 year programm Phd is giving you salary every month? or you need to pay some extra money or tution fee? Which other programmes are there to help us financially? I ask it because my parents havent got the ability to support me financialy if i go abroad. I know about scholarships, but what it needs to gain a scholarship? Also, what needs to be acceptable in a 4 year programme? can you apply without having a master degree, or you have to gain this degree first?? Thank you in advance!!
