Glasgow International Development Scholarships (UK)
Glasgow Centre for International Development (GCID) Scholarship Scheme
University of Glasgow, UK
The Glasgow Centre for International Development is pleased to announce the launch of its GCID scholarship scheme. This scheme is aimed at high-achieving candidates from a small number of eligible countries in Africa and Asia (including Pakistan) who wish to pursue a PhD at the University of Glasgow.
Deadline: 31 Jul 2008
The Glasgow Centre for International Development is pleased to announce the launch of its GCID scholarship scheme. A natural extension of the University’s recently launched Commonwealth Scholarship Fund, this scheme is aimed at high-achieving candidates from a small number of eligible countries in Africa and Asia (including Pakistan) who wish to pursue a PhD at the University of Glasgow (see below for the list of eligible countries), starting in October 2008 or as soon as possible thereafter.
Research Proposal/Areas
The PhD proposal must be in one of GCID’s four priority research areas. These are:
Health (Human and Animal)
Environmental Management
Education, Lifelong Learning and Global Citizenship
Economic Development
The specific subject of the proposal must be of development relevance to the home country of the applicant, and it is expected that the student will spend a minimum of 12 months conducting research in their home country during the course of their studies.
Eligible countries
Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Democratic Republic of Congo, Ethiopia, Ghana, Indonesia, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Nepal, Nigeria, Pakistan, Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sudan, Tanzania, Uganda, Vietnam, Zambia, Zimbabwe
Scholarships
Successful candidates will receive a 3-year scholarship which includes payment of tuition fees at the University of Glasgow, a monthly stipend for living expenses, and an annual contribution towards travel and research expenses. It is expected that successful candidates will be in possession of an excellent grade first degree along with a good and relevant Master’s degree or other good, relevant experience.
Applications should include:
an up-to-date Curriculum Vitae
transcripts of your academic record
the names and addresses of three referees
an identified home-country institution that will act as a partner in the proposed research
a statement from an appropriate authority within this home-country institution identifying a mentor (or co-supervisor) within the partner institution and confirming that the student will be guaranteed local supervisory support whilst back in-country undertaking research
a research proposal NOT exceeding 1000 words which includes a title for your proposed project; an overall research aim for your proposed project; your research objectives or research questions; a background to the proposed research, including a brief literature review; proposed methods; and a preliminary timetable of work
Please send your application electronically in the first instance to Ms Mikal Mast at m.mast@admin.gla.ac.ukThis e-mail address is being protected from spambots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it by 31 July 2008.
Notes to applicants
Initially a small number of scholarships are on offer from the start of session 2008-09, each for three years.
Research proposals will be expected to contribute to understandings of development issues relevant to the student’s home country.
Normally the student will spend a minimum of 12 months back in-country, for example in the field, in the lab or in archives etc. While conducting research in their home country, students are expected to collaborate with an appropriate local institution (university, research institute, non-governmental organization) with interest in the research topic.
Applicants must supply a statement from an appropriate authority within this home-country institution confirming that local supervisory support will be provided to the applicant whilst in-country undertaking research. It is not intended that the home country institution cover student salary support or research costs, but the statement should confirm that office space and access to email facilities will be made available for the student, and that an appropriate mentor can be identified to act as a point of contact in case of emergency, facilitation of logistics as well as providing any necessary additional research support. This onsite mentor would ideally be recognized as a formal co-supervisor and encouraged to adopt a fundamental role as part of the research team, sharing in research outputs resulting from the work.
Whilst the student is in-country, he/she will receive supervision by email from the UG supervisor, which is to be complemented by onsite support from a designated mentor (or co-supervisor) at the host institution.
Students will be expected to return to their home country on completion of the PhD.
While in the UK the student will receive a monthly stipend at the same level as that paid to graduates supported by UK Research Councils (currently £12,800 per annum). While in their home country they will receive an amount equal to the appropriate standard rate for their level of experience at the collaborating institution.
A bench fee sum of £4000 will be available annually to cover return travel to and from the home country, and as a contribution towards laboratory costs and fieldwork expenses.
Applications will initially be submitted to GCID and an internal committee will make decisions on the successful candidates. At this stage, the successful candidates will be invited to make a formal application to the relevant faculty of the University of Glasgow.
Normally, not more than one scholarship will be assigned to any one of the four GCID research clusters, although if there are no suitable applications for one or more clusters, those scholarships can then be re-assigned.
