Estonian national scholarship programme for international students, researchers and academic staff. The scholarships for Doctoral study are intended to support the degree study of international students at the Estonian institutions of higher education (HEI).
The scholarship for degree study is paid for twelve calendar months each academic year during the nominal period of study, except the last academic year of the nominal period of study when the scholarship is paid for ten months.
The applications are assessed considering the following:
thoroughness of the study plan; quality of application: clear objectives, work plan, expected study results etc; succession rating of entrance of foreign students (for foreign student of the first year) or weighted average rating above all study (for the foreign students of the second year).
The commission will favour applicants who have not been granted or given any other scholarships for the same period or for the same aim.
