A letter addressed to the Ministry of science and the Committee on Science and technology of the Congress sent scholarships affected by national doctoral network in order to claim for a series of measures taken by the Commission Zion Nacional de Investigación Científica y Tecnológica (Conicyt) that are detrimental to them.
“We have suffered the reduction and loss of profits to the detriment of the country’s scientific development,” designates the entity in his statement, where accused Conicyt make a number of changes to procedures, adjusting to the assigned budget minimum by the institution.
Doctorates argue that the actions taken by this entity “are inconsistent with promised by that entity in dialogue with this network, and unacceptable in terms of a system of postgraduate education is conceived as a social priority for the country, not a good to subsidize”.
“Modifications and new procedures are not going the right way, instead, harm the correct completion of investigations already underway, and affect the scientific progress of Chile in the long run. and also go to the detriment of the development of a knowledge of quality”, added.
Then the full letter: of: affected by rejection of request for fringe benefits for 2019: Ministry of science, technology, knowledge and innovation Commission on Science and technology of the Conference is present scammed: along with greeting, we went you hereby to transmit some events and decisions which CONICYT has taken that we consider will to the detriment of the development of a knowledge of postgraduate’s quality.
The researchers decided to form in Chile told for years with the possibility of choosing complementary benefits to finance their studies, those who watched, for example: the possibility of internships; the purchase of inputs; the payment of Congress; among others. Also the possibility to apply for an extension of the grant for a maximum of six months, linked with the writing process or in order to be used to publish the results of their projects.
Currently, researchers who decided to stay to make your graduate in the country experienced various situations that have hindered the process of study during the period of training; This is due to changes made by CONICYT procedures to access the fringe benefits and, thus, to conform to the budget allocated by the institution. As a result, we have experienced the reduction or loss of profits to the detriment of the country’s scientific development. In this context, to consider new procedures and modifications to the criteria for the award of benefits are not going the right way, that on the other hand, harm the correct completion of investigations already underway, and affect the scientific progress of Chile in the long run.
The landmarks that we highlight in this process of collective articulation and coming changes from the State are as follows: 2017: notice by CONICYT to apply to the fringe benefits with a limited period of three business days to start your implementation. Due to this context, affected network is organized to stop this procedure.
2018: It was announced that the budget is insufficient to meet the demand of the fringe benefits designed by students in the current year.
Talks with the network of people affected are generated in order to find possible solutions and other organizations of graduate students. He is achieved by deferring a year the implementation of “window closed”, staying open request for fringe benefits during the whole mechanism 2018.
In April of 2018, ends the CONICYT budget for fringe benefits, accumulating hundreds of unanswered requests. Affected network achieved that you act to the authorities of CONICYT in the Commission on Science and technology of the Chamber of Deputies. After demonstrations, meetings and public explanations, the budget is redistributed in August 2018 to finance remaining by request during second semester 2018 and pending requests.
Settles bankruptcy mechanism, i.e., the request to “window closed” as a substitute for the window open in order to adjust to the budget of the institution for this purpose. CONICYT opens nominations in August 2018 for fringe benefits which shall begin its execution for 2019.
The data mentioned above are part of the context that helps us to understand what has happened up to the year in course. However, this process of change had its highest point the last Monday 14 January 2019, when the results of application of the additional benefits referred to in the national PhD scholarships were published. After waiting for three months, confirmed the apprehensions that generated the new procedure implemented by CONICYT, which has produced almost half of 518 requests for Extension grants and more than one third of internship scholarships in conjunction with Ga scholarships STOS operational, are rejected. This fact is in detriment, once again, advanced human capital currently enrolled in doctoral programs in Chile.
It is unfortunate that we are suffering these losses since since the beginning of graduate studies we plan our projects whereas open access to benefits. The results respond to the increase in doctoral students that is funding CONICYT every year, as a result, the trend of applications for supplementary benefits is growing and is not consistent with the budget that currently exists.
It is unacceptable that in the year in which they opened the first “Ministry of science, technology, knowledge and innovation” is the modification of procedures to qualify for additional benefits established in the bankruptcy rules, referred to, Initially, at the time of applying for the scholarship. By CONICYT reasons are the increase in doctoral students who apply for such benefits, which is not consistent with the annual budget planning that a State Agency should consider. We ask, therefore, initiate a redistribution of the annual budget on an ongoing basis in order to ensure access to the benefits complementary to all cohorts.
In addition, due to this situation, again affected by grants of national doctoral network rising voice to denounce a series of measures and policies of CONICYT which are inconsistent with promised by that entity in dialogue with this network and unacceptable with regard to a system of postgraduate education is conceived as a social priority for the country, and not a well to subsidize: changes in procedures: ongoing doctoral projects were formulated in accordance with the procedure of assignment of benefits complementary through the open window, which, in practice, offered guarantees of access to 2017. Fellows already won a contest, however, we are putting arbitrarily to other selection processes embedded within the same grant agreement. We therefore reject the implementation of logics of competition already once the scholarship.
Improper request procedures: guarantees not to compete, were formally extended through 2018 to then continue under another application format. However, the procedure implemented in practice, the above-mentioned “window closed”, failed to meet this purpose, because these “requests” were subjected to assessment procedures equal to a contest, leaving people on the standard of (rejected) (accepted) compliance and people outside of the norm. We do not want the logic of competition held in the careers of researchers, especially because we are concerned about the areas of the knowledge being systematically hardest with measures such as the arts and humanities.
Little transparent criteria: there is an explicit justification of the scores assigned by each evaluator or group of evaluators to the students in the process of granting the different fringe benefits, i.e., there is any an act that shows the criteria and arguments, observations or foundations that allow to understand the assigned score. In conclusion, there is a ladder with parameterized evaluation criteria. As students, we believe that the assessment is too general and subjective. On the other hand, and if we go further, we think that there should be no such criteria once already obtained the scholarship.
Contradictions with prior criteria of evaluation obtained by the researchers: along with the above, because there are not parameterized, but rather subjective evaluation criteria. It has been detected, the inside of the process, contradictions in scores allocated among different applications for supplementary benefits. For example: relevance of the study, there are cases where the same project was able to reach a score of 5 for other fringe benefits, and 3 points in this last procedure installed by CONICYT, for the extension of the scholarship for 6 months.
Negligence towards commitment to the advanced human capital of postgraduate formation: the formation of graduate students will be compromised, since the projects were planned whereas the above procedure (open window) that It increased the possibility of obtaining the extension period. He is also conocido by everyone in the scientific or academic community that the final period of 6 months not only aims to write the thesis, but also the drafting of publications associated with it. The latter shall be at the expense of our academic curriculum as of the research groups associated with the dissemination of the results of investigations.
Violation of international students: it is important to consider that foreign students, have student visa which makes it impossible to work legally and complete his thesis.
Lack of quality control of the operation of CONICYT: the opinion of the users of CONICYT programs is not taken into consideration. The institution is limited to present results based on its internal management and insists to make arbitrary decisions that directly affect the users of programs without considering the economic and social impact of their measures.
Depending on the arguments above, considered this letter as a collective appeal in which we demand the following: the granting of the requested supplementary benefits. All applications, the touted “closed door”, who were compliant with the bases should be accepted, to not harm the development of doctoral project who had these benefits since the beginning of the PhD Scholarship. At the same time, we ask that you return to the procedure of open window for those who are pursuing postgraduate or enter in a future.
The suspension of the (implicit in the so-called “window closed”) competition by the fringe benefits in the future. We do not believe that science and technology in Chile need to adjust their procedures to the deficit of an institution, or irresponsible financial management since adhere to these criteria affects the quality of the work and forwarded to the researchers of the concerns of their projects and future academic screening, being that they have already won their fellowship training in order to contribute to the development of the country.
An instance of actual dialogue between fellows and CONICYT. It is important to establish spaces for real and effective participation through dialogue between different levels of the involved tables, where our opinions or objections to be heard and taken seriously; in order to reach collective agreements that favor the formation of human capital advanced for the benefit of our country’s scientific and technological development.
The need to form part of the political and economic planning of the strategic objectives of scientific and academic research. All of these problems that were raised are part of the diagnosis, i.e. are inputs to establish policies and reflections on Science and technology in Chile. For this reason, we request a redistribution of its annual budget on an ongoing basis, to guarantee their fringe benefits to all cohorts. The previous demand arises because doctoral graduate students want to be part of this planning, as long as we are the subjects to which public policy is directed.
We hope that this letter can intercede on behalf of the community of researchers which aimed to contribute, in fact, our country in a way to provide a legacy to future generations. The institutional logics that Castle in budget cuts to invalidate the completion of doctoral projects do not do more to undermine the quality of such projects that are running for years at the highest level, greatly limiting the research that only seek to build knowledge for all.
