How PhD funding works in Poland

PhD positions in Europe are almost always funded through advertised research positions — not traditional scholarships. The university or research group pays you a salary or stipend to do your research. The key is finding an open position, not applying for a scholarship.

Search EURAXESS for open positions

EURAXESS is the official EU research jobs board. Filter by country and field to find funded PhD positions posted by universities.

Search EURAXESS
Check the university's open positions page

Go directly to Wrocław University of Environmental and Life Sciences's website and look for "Open Positions", "PhD Vacancies", or "Graduate School" — most funded positions are listed there first.

Email professors directly

Find professors at this university whose research matches your interest. A well-targeted cold email explaining your background and research interest is the most effective path to a funded PhD position.

Contact the graduate committee

Reach out to the department's graduate admissions or PhD coordinator. Ask specifically about funded positions and whether any research groups are currently recruiting.
