MA and PhD graduates (diploma obtained less than 3 years ago) can also apply to the competition. The regulations can be consulted at www.aphes.pt

Papers should be presented in 15 minutes. Proposals should include as compulsory components, an abstract (maximum 500 words), including up to 4 keywords and a brief CV (maximum 1 page), with an indication of the object, objectives, theoretical focus and empirical grounding.
