Please circulate and forward this information to students and possible candidates. The Center for Development Research (ZEF) in Bonn, Germany, invites highly-qualified, young scientists from Developing Countries to participate in its International Doctoral Program for Development Studies. ZEF is a multi- and interdisciplinary institution with three departments: Political and Cultural Change (Prof. Dr. Andreas Wimmer), Economics and Technological Change (Prof. Dr. Joachim von Braun), Ecology and Resource Management (Prof. Dr. Paul. L.G. Vlek). By pooling the expertise of this three departments, this three year Doctoral Program enables the students to take advantage of ZEF�s strength in interdisciplinary development research and cooperation with national and international institutions. Its International Doctoral Program for Development Studies aims at further education of highly qualified, young scientists around the world engaged in Development Economics, Policy Analysis, Sociology and International Resource Management, Agriculture and Forestry. ZEF offers on a competitive basis doctoral degrees, which may be submitted in consultation with ZEF to any co-operating faculty, overseas or in Europe. The doctoral degrees may be in Social or Political Science, Economics, Agricultural Economics, Agriculture, Forestry or Natural Science. The entire program is in English. A two-months conversational German language course is offered at the beginning of the course program. The doctoral studies are associated with interdisciplinary and disciplinary courses. The empirical research has to be conducted at their specific location abroad, in developing countries or international institutions, in an environment with quality advisors and supervisors. ZEF supports individual students with funds for field research. Fellowships from several national and international foundations and sponsors, including DAAD, are offered primarily to students from the developing countries. Students from Germany and the EU countries, with a master or equivalent degree Forestry, Agriculture or Agricultural Economics may apply for a scholarship from the Robert Bosch Foundation (deadline May 30th, every year). Qualified candidates who cannot be offered a scholarship will receive a letter of qualification and acceptance. It will help them to seek financial assistance at other institutions and foundations that provide grants for living expenses (approx. 1800,- DM per month) and research costs (approx. 25.000,-DM). ZEF offers also DAAD-scholarships for a cooperate doctoral studies. Therefore, we encourage students to apply for those sandwich-scholarship, if they are already accepted as a doctoral students at a university in their home country. Those students will receive a scholarship to study at ZEF. They will participate - as the other students - in the doctoral courses at ZEF and conduct their empirical research in their home country. One of their supervisor has to come from their home university. ************************************************** The next deadline of applications for scholarships and admission to the International Doctoral Program is: September 30, 2001 See details at our web-page: http://www.zef.de <http://www.zef.de> On request we send additional information. ******************* A d d r e s s ******************** Dr. G�nther Manske Co-ordinator International Doctoral Program for Development Studies Center for Development Research (ZEF) Walter-Flex-Str. 3, 53113 Bonn, Germany Tel.: ++49-(0)228-73-1794 or 1727 FAX: ++49-(0)228-73-1889 E mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ******************************************************* --------------------------------------------------------------------- Mulai langganan: kirim e-mail ke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Stop langganan: kirim e-mail ke [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive ada di http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]
