[Fsfe-france] y'a moyen de faire une thèse?

[Jean-Baptiste Soufron]

Ca avait l'air intéressant ^_^

Je profite de la mailing-list pour lancer un appel desespéré...

En tant que juriste, je cherche à financer ma thèse, évidemment j'aimerais 
faire une thèse en rapport avec les droits d'auteurs, le logiciel libre, etc. 
J'imaginais soit décrocher une bourse universitaire mais les places sont 
chères, soit travailler dans un cabinet d'avocat ou dans une entreprise pendant 
4 ou 5 ans... et si possible dans le cadre d'une entreprise liée aux idées que 
nous défendons.

Sauriez-vous quelles entreprises seraient intéressées par ce genre de projet. 
J'ajoute qu'employer un doctorant en droit permet de bénéficier de juteuses 
subventions du ministère de l'éducation (qui verse environ un smic par mois à 
l'entreprise pendant 3 ans) et de bénéficier de nombreux soutiens 
universitaires.

Help les amis, help!
