Introduction

On 1 September 2016, the University of Groningen has started with the PhD Scholarship Programme. This programme is issued by the Dutch Ministry of Education, Culture, and Science (OCW) within the framework of the national PhD Scholarship Programme Experiment.

In the UG PhD Scholarship Programme, selected prospective PhD students are invited to write their own PhD research proposal in collaboration with an expert PhD supervisor from the University of Groningen with whom they would like to work. Thus, as a PhD scholarship student you will do curiosity-driven research that allows you to work at the boundaries of knowledge!

As of September 2024, this program will end.
