As is the case every year, as part of its agreements with the China Scholarship Council (CSC), the Groupe des Écoles Centrale is launching its annual “GEC-CSC PhD & Postdocs” programme for the recruitment of doctoral and/or post-doctoral students for the 2024 academic year.

This programme aims to recruit:

  • Chinese doctoral students funded by the CSC (call 1);
  • Chinese post-doctoral students funded by the CSC (call 2);

who, if selected by both the GEC and the CSC, will come in academic year 2024 to study for a doctorate or post-doctorate in France in the laboratories of one of the five Écoles Centrale (Paris, Lyon, Nantes, Lille or Marseille).
