IMU-CDC: New programme for developing countries

The first call of the new program IMU Breakout Graduate Fellowship  
will be open
from the 15th April to the 15th June.
Thanks to a generous donation by the winners of the Breakthrough Prizes in
Mathematics – Ian Agol, Simon Donaldson, Maxim Kontsevich, Jacob  
Lurie, Terence
Tao and Richard Taylor – IMU with the assistance of FIMU (Friends of the IMU)
and TWAS (The World Academy of Sciences) is launching a fellowship program to
support postgraduate studies, in a developing country, leading to a PhD degree
in the mathematical sciences. The IMU Breakout Graduate Fellowships  
will offer a
limited number of grants for excellent students from developing countries.
Professional mathematicians are invited to nominate highly motivated and
mathematically talented students from developing countries who plan to  
complete
a doctoral degree in a developing country, including their own home country.
Nominees must have a consistently good academic record from the high school
level and must be seriously interested in pursuing a career of research and
teaching in mathematics.
For a nomination to be eligible, the country of citizenship of the  
student, the
country of residency and the country where the study will take place must be
contained in the list of Developing Countries as defined by IMU for the period
2016-2019. More information: http://www.mathunion.org/cdc .
