Survey on the added value of MSCA PhDs

30 10 2024

The European Research Executive Agency (REA) of the European Commission is conducting a survey to gather (anonymous) feedback on the added value of MSCA PhDs, in comparison to other doctoral programmes.

The survey is addressed to principal investigators/supervisors as well as PhD researchers (PhD completed or ongoing) involved in MSCA and non-MSCA funded projects.

This feedback is highly valuable as it will help us improve the MSCA Doctoral Networks programme, which we are managing. It will also feed into the European Commission’s wider policy reflections for the forthcoming period: indeed, promoting excellence in doctoral education and training is relevant to our strategic objectives for both the European Research Area and the European Education Area, and contributes to the implementation of the European Strategy for Universities.

The survey can be accessed: here. Please note that it may take up to 1-2 minutes for the survey to load completely. The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The survey will remain open until 10 November 2024.
