Overview
Every academic year, we grant ten PhD scholarships to excellent Master graduates from a developing country who have studied in a VLIR-UOS funded Master programme (ICP) in Flanders and wish to make a PhD at a Flemish university.
The number of available scholarships will however be subject to the approval of the government of the budget of the Scholarships Programme of VLIR-UOS.
As an ICP PhD student, you can institutionally strengthen your university or research institution in your home country by upgrading your academic capacities. Hence every year we provide 10 scholarships to people who wish to carry out research on a development topic, in a so-called sandwich programme.
The research and doctoral programme are geographically spread over two locations, namely the academic home institution and a Flemish university. In this way both local and Flemish expertise are combined to offer you and both research groups a win-win effect. The selection committee assesses and ranks all proposals according to quality and relevance for the South.
Nationality
You should be a national ánd resident of a developing country of the VLIR-UOS-country list that was applicable in the year you started your ICP studies (see VLIR-UOS website).
