Evaluation criteria The applications considered admissible will be 
graded from 1.000 (minimum) to 5.000 (maximum) in each of the three 
evaluation criteria: A. Merit of the Candidate; B. Merit of the Work 
Plan; C. Merit of the Contribution to the Strategic Development of 
CICANT. For the purpose of the decision on awarding the scholarship, 
candidates will be sorted according to the weighted average of the score 
obtained on each of the three criteria, with the weight of 40% for Merit 
of the Candidate (A), 40% for Merit of the Work Plan (B) and 20% for 
Merit of Contribution to the Strategic Development of CICANT (C), 
translated into the following formula: Final score = (0.4 
×??)+(0.4×??)+(0.2×??) For the purpose of tie breaking, candidates will 
be sorted on the basis of the scores given to each of the evaluation 
criteria by the following order of precedence: criterion A (Merit of the 
Candidate), criterion B (Merit of the Work Plan) and criterion C (Merit 
of C.Strategic Development of CICANT). On any of the evaluation 
criteria, scores will be given with three decimal places. The figure 
resulting from the application of any formulas specified in this guide 
shall be rounded to the third decimal place, using the following rule: 
when the fourth decimal place is equal to or higher than 5 (five), it 
shall be rounded up; when the fourth decimal place is lower than 5 
(five), the value of the third decimal place shall be kept. All 
candidates whose application is evaluated with a final score lower than 
3.000 points shall not be eligible for awarding the scholarship. 5.1.1. 
Criterion A – Merit of the Candidate The merit of the candidate, 
criterion A, with a weight of 40%, is evaluated along three 
sub-criteria: A1. Academic path (reflecting the scores of academic 
degrees), with a weight of 50% of the merit of the candidate; A.2. 
Personal Curriculum (reflecting the scientific and professional path, as 
well as the academic path, when applicable), with a weight of 40% of the 
merit of the candidate; A.3. Letter of motivation, with a weight of 10% 
of the merit of the candidate. The score of criterion A shall be 
obtained by using the following formula: Criterion ?? = (??1 × 0,5) + 
(??2 × 0,4) + (??3×0,1) The score to be awarded to any one of the 
sub-criteria shall be done pursuant to FCT’s Evaluation Guide (pages 7, 
8, 9 and 10) for granting PhD scholarships (available at 
https://www.fct.pt/apoios/bolsas/concursos/docs/Bolsas_2019_GuiaoAvaliacao_PT.pdf 
<https://www.fct.pt/apoios/bolsas/concursos/docs/Bolsas_2019_GuiaoAvaliacao_PT.pdf>) 
5.1.2. Criterion B – Merit of the Work Plan The criterion Merit of the 
Work Plan, with the weight of 40%, is evaluated on the basis of three 
parameters: B1 – Well-grounded relevance and innovation of the study 
object; B2 – Scientific standards of the literature review and of the 
methodology of the work plan; B3 – Feasibility of the work plan. When 
evaluating parameter B1, the following should be valued: clear 
definition of the research objectives and questions; the potential 
contribution of the research project to knowledge and the advancement of 
science and technology. When evaluating parameter B2, the following 
should be valued: literature review submitted and the proposed research 
methodology, considering its clarity, consistency and coherence, in 
accordance with internationally accepted standards. When evaluating 
parameter B3, the following should be valued: the adequacy of the 
methodologies to the tasks and the objectives defined in the work plan 
and their respective deadlines. If applicable, the analysis of the risks 
inherent to the different stages which constitute the work plan shall 
also be valued, possibly with the preliminary identification of the most 
critical points and the corresponding contingency measures to be 
adopted. The presentation of the timeline must also be valued within the 
scope of the evaluation of this criterion, as well as any other 
documents included pertaining to the work plan (schematics, formulas or 
figures, for example). 5.1.3. Criterion C - Merit of the Contribution to 
the Strategic Development of CICANT. The evaluation of this Criterion 
must be based on the demonstration provided by the candidate, on the 
letter of motivation and the presentation of the work plan, that his/her 
project fits the strategic objectives and the creation of new knowledge 
as related to the scientific communities of CeiED and the contents of 
their programmes. “CICANT – The Centre for Research in Applied
