PhD and post-doctoral grants
Each year, CNES allocates around a hundred doctoral and postdoctoral research grants to young students interested in space activities.
Strong support for young researchers:
- Train young researchers and engineers in the space field
- Ensure a scientific environment of excellence and a strong capacity for innovation
- Support space research in the fields of user sciences (space transport systems, orbital systems, user sciences of space resources, human and social sciences).
- Strength the links between young researchers, CNES and industry (Young Researchers Days – JC1-JC2; Paris Air Show, etc.)
