Young Scientist Contracts


The Young Scientist Contract is aimed at students who wish to carry out a PhD at INRA and begin a career in research. Its specificity lies in that it involves a partnership between INRA and a graduate school or a research institute.

 
 

It is a fixed-term public law contract. Its initial duration is three years. Two extra periods of three months maximum may be granted exceptionally in order to finish the thesis.

Once the young scientist has successfully obtained his/her thesis,  the contract can be renewed for a duration of 2 years on condition that he/she spends time abroad.

Young scientist contracts have attractive remuneration conditions. Before obtaining his/her PhD, the doctoral student receives 1995€ (gross) per month. After obtaining his/her PhD, the remuneration is 2315€ (gross) per month. An annual bonus of 795€ is paid half-yearly.
