The Institute for Austrian and International Tax Law  would like to inform you about a scholarship program for Chinese PhD students. The program is a cooperation of the Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC) and the Austrian Research Fund (FWF). It addresses to Chinese PhD students who intend to pursue their PhD studies fully or partly in Austria (up to one year).

As we think that this is a great opportunity not only to promote research in the area of tax law but also to enhance the cooperation of researchers in China and Austria, we are listed as a host university for this program.

We would like to encourage Chinese PhD students researching in tax law to consider doing research at our Institute and to apply for this scholarship.

The application is now open for the academic year starting in fall 2014. Please find further information and the application form on the following homepage:

http://www.fwf.ac.at/de/internationales/csc2013-applicants.html

The provided application form must be used and sent to the FWF by December 6, 2013 at the latest! We would ask all interested students to supplement the application form with a CV and a short outline of their PhD project (topic, research questions). Please inform us by e-mail of you application made and kindly let us have your CV and a short outline of your PhD project (topic, research questions), as well.

Please feel free to forward this information to interested students or circulate it in related networks.
