Thesis allowances MinArm
19/01/2021

The Ministry of the Armed Forces is awarding up to six thesis grants in military history for the year 2021. The amount of the allowance is 10,000 euros.

These allowances are open to all candidates registered for a thesis at the time of application, with the exception of doctoral students benefiting from a doctoral contract.

Can apply :

- Any doctoral student, regardless of nationality, registered in a French university and attached to a French laboratory.

- Any doctoral student of French nationality registered in a foreign university.

Applications are submitted to the Conseil scientifique de la recherche historique de la défense (CSRHD) which decides on the allocation of these grants.

The allowance is awarded for a period of one year. It can be renewed twice, at the explicit request of the candidate. As renewal is not automatic, the candidate must draw up a new application each year, including a statement of the work carried out since the previous application; this file is submitted once again to the CSRHD, which will assess the progress of the candidate's work.

After acceptance by the CSRHD, a thesis allowance agreement is sent by the Ministry of the Armed Forces to each recipient of the allowance.

Deadline for submitting applications:Friday 19 March 2021 (23:59)
