Are you an exceptional doctoral student from a developing country looking for opportunities to advance your research in development-related topics? Look no further than the Global Minds Programme by KU Leuven, the largest university in Belgium. As part of its development cooperation initiative, KU Leuven offers scholarships to exceptional students like you to obtain their PhD through a ‘sandwich’ system, where 50% of your research will take place at KU Leuven and the other 50% at your home institution, supported by a local co-promoter.
As a scholarship recipient, you will receive a range of benefits, including coverage for your tuition fees, monthly allowance, insurance, travel costs, research allowance, and more. To be eligible, you must be a citizen of one of the countries included in the scholarship country list, which includes countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Additionally, your latest Master’s degree must have been awarded no more than ten years ago, and you must have been awarded an academic grade equivalent to High Distinction or higher.
The application process for the Global Minds PhD scholarship involves two steps. First, you must obtain admission to a doctoral or predoctoral program, and then once this admission has been obtained, you can apply for the scholarship. The deadline for scholarship applications is February 22, 2023, at 5:00 PM GMT.
