Formation of Advanced Human Capital Program

CONICYT’s Formation of Advanced Human Capital Program is focused on supporting and strengthening the training of high level human capital, both in Chile and abroad, in all areas of expertise. The goal is achieved by issuing competitive calls for graduate degree scholarships in Chile, graduate degree scholarships abroad, and complementary scholarships.

In this context, the Program is in charge of managing graduate degree scholarships for the BECAS CHILE System, which includes all the scholarships that CONICYT used to grant until 2008.

Strategic goals

  • Encouraging applicants of excellence and increasing their numbers.
  • Implementing simple and efficient application, selection, granting, and monitoring processes related to the scholarship.
  • Generating and providing information about the training of advanced human capital.
  • In the framework of our mission, supporting and promoting grantees who obtain their academic degree.

Mission

In line with the national innovation strategy for Chile’s development, contributing to increase the number of graduate researchers and professionals of excellence.
