IRCHSS Government Post-Graduate Scholarships in the Humanties and Social Sciences

IRCHSS schemes support research in the historical, analytical, theoretical and empirical study of subjects which normally fall within the humanities and social sciences, including law and business studies. While applications may relate only to those subject areas listed, there are a broad range of sub or inter-disciplinary areas which normally fall within the humanities and social sciences and are therefore eligible for consideration under this programme.
Women’s Studies is one such example of a multi-disciplinary field which, through rigorous scholarship and analysis, draws on traditional humanities and social science to offer a new perspective.
When will the results of this scheme be conveyed to applicants?
The assessment of this scheme will not be concluded before August 2011, at which point applicants will be informed by letter of the outcome. The secretariat will not discuss the results of the scheme over the telephone.

Scholarship Application Deadline: 21st February 2011

ICP PhD Scholarships 2011 for Developing Country Students in Belgium

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.

Target group
The call is open for people who graduated not earlier than 2006, or will graduate in 2011, from a Flemish, VLIR-UOS funded Master programme (ICP). As an applicant, you must meet other criteria, which we specify in the call.
