Sofinanciranje doktorskega študija na Univerzi v Ljubljani v študijskem letu 2023/24

The Regulation on Co-financing of Doctoral Studies (Official Journal of the RS, No 22/17 and 105/20) and the amendment to the Higher Education Act regulate the co-financing of publicly valid doctoral study programmes.

Sofinanciranje šolnin na doktorskih študijskih programih Univerze v Ljubljani bo v študijskem letu 2024/2025 omogočeno vsem študentom, ki bodo izpolnjevali pogoje ​za sofinanciranje. Študenti bodo o izpolnjevanju pogojev kot tudi o višini sofinanciranja šolnine obveščeni s strani članice, na kateri so/bodo vpisani. O višini sofinanciranja pa bodo študenti obveščeni šele po vpisu na doktorski študij, predvidoma meseca novembra, saj je višina sofinanciranja za posameznega študenta/ko odvisna ne zgolj od sredstev, ki so bila dodeljena Univerzi v Ljubljani, temveč tudi od števila vpisanih študentov, ki bodo izpolnjevali pogoje za sofinanciranje.

Regular employment or registration in the unemployment register at the Employment Service of the Republic of Slovenia do exclude you from co-financing. There is also no age limit for co-financing.
