DN: An institution preparing a Doctoral Networks application plans to offer a 65% employment contract for PhD students as the MSCA funding only covers 65% of the salary they pay PhD students at their organisation. Will this kind of contract be allowed?

Part-time work for professional reasons in Doctoral Networks is not allowed. There is a funding gap problem in many countries. There is no other way than to match this gap from other financial resources (either internal or external as long as double funding is prevented).
