37 Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Fellowship Winners

A funded doctorate depends on more than finding an interesting research topic. Applicants also need to show a strong match with the proposed project, host organisation, and international training environment. The Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Fellowship is suited to researchers preparing for structured PhD work across academic and professional settings.

Winners explain how they positioned their research experience, adapted their CVs to specific doctoral roles, and prepared for technical interviews. Read their stories to learn how they found suitable openings, communicated their contribution to a research team, and handled the recruitment process.
