Non-EU PhD in Industry permit type

Dear fellow members,

Do you know what type of B permit is given to a PhD student in a company? The contract is limited for 4 years and it is co-supervised with an ETH prof. The salary comes from the company not ETH.

Type of B permit I mean as a student (study B permit) or normal employee B permit?

Regards,

Iirc PhD’s get a student one.

Are you matriculated as a student at ETH?

Then it'll be a student b permit.

e.g. My salary as a PhD was paid by the canton and federal agencies and not the university.

I am still considering this position, don't know exactly whether I will be matriculated as a student or not.

Thanks

Hi,

Did you able to learn which permit B it is? My wife has a similar situation so we are not sure about accepting a position for an industry funding Phd if the permit is going to be student B.

Thank you
