PhD Fellowships
AERC also offers a limited number of fellowships annually,
towards PhD studies. To be eligible for consideration,
the request must again come from an African national
intending to pursue a career in economic management,
research and/or teaching at a public institution in
sub-Saharan Africa.
Academic excellence, as well as potential for research,
forms the overriding criteria for short-listing candidates
for interview. Priority is accorded to candidates who
are on staff development in the Collaborative MA Programme
(CMAP).
Requests should be supported by the following documentation:
-
Evidence of an attachment to, or sponsorship by,
an institution in sub-Saharan Africa engaged in
economic management, research and/or training in
the public sector in the region.
-
Evidence of registration in a recognized PhD programme
in economics.
-
Letters of recommendation from senior university/institute
officials.
-
Academic transcripts for both bachelor of arts
and master of arts/master of science degrees.
-
A proposed budget
-
A curriculum vitae
Deadlines
Applications for PhD fellowships must be submitted by
January 31 of each year.
