Cost of living Scholarship

All students entering the program in 2025 will receive a cost-of-living scholarship of €26,000 per year for five years, funded by the HEC Foundation.

This scholarship is not tied to a research assistantship. Optional teaching assistant, research assistant, and other teaching opportunities are available and provide additional income.

Pregnancy during PhD: Completing a PhD is a long journey and should not come in the way of starting a family. At HEC Paris, female students benefit from a paid maternity leave and may receive up to six months of additional scholarship funding to complete their dissertation serenely.
