Payme to studes immediately after being selected in the scheme
Nikbakht explained: The research payme in this project is done in 3-moh periods, so that at the beginning of every 3 mohs, the amou of 45 million Tomans corresponding to the previous 3 mohs will be deposited io the accou of the project winners. Accordingly, in this period of the call, the amou of 45 million Tomans will be paid to the chosen ones who are at the end of the fourth semester of their studies and meet the meioned conditions.

The condition of being free of research/reimburseme in case of non-fulfillme of the conditions
Nikbakht emphasized: The research related to this project will be provided to the studes in the form of facilities. Therefore, if the selected candidate submits two essays by the end of the eighth semester and defends them by the end of the teh semester, the facility will be free of charge. If the stude does not meet the condition of publishing articles, but defends his thesis by the end of the 10th semester, he will have a 12-moh breathing period after graduation, after which he must repay the facility within 18 mohs without ierest. The defense period will be added to the breathing period before the end of the 10th semester.
Beginning of repayme for studes without defense in the 11th semester

The reason for this is that after the defense, he is no longer considered a stude and the facilities are for studes who are studying. This issue does not mean the stude’s poor performance, but is simply regulated by the regulations of the doctoral course facility.
