Dear OWSD Network,

We are pleased to open the Call for Applications for the 2021 OWSD PhD
Fellowship <https://owsd.net/career-development/phd-fellowship>s
<https://owsd.net/career-development/phd-fellowship>. We kindly ask your
help in sharing this opportunity with anyone in your networks who could
benefit from the Fellowship.

The Fellowship is offered to women scientists from Science and Technology
Lagging Countries
<https://owsd.net/sites/default/files/OWSD%20Eligible%20Countries%202017.pdf>
to undertake PhD research in the natural, engineering and information
technology sciences at a host institute in the South.
Costs covered include travel to the host country, tuition fees, board,
accommodation and living expenses, and a special allowance for travel to
international conferences. The programme is administered with funds
generously provided by the Swedish International Development Cooperation
Agency <https://www.sida.se/en> (Sida) and is offered in partnership with
host institutes throughout the developing world.

Two types of fellowship are available:

   - A *full-time* *fellowship* (maximum 4 years funding), where the
   research is undertaken entirely at a host institute in another developing
   country in the South.


   - A *sandwich* *fellowship*, where the candidate must be a registered
   PhD student in her home country and undertakes part of her studies at a
   host institute in another developing country. The sandwich fellowship is
   awarded for a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3 research visits at the host
   institute. OWSD particularly encourages candidates to consider the sandwich
   option, which allows them to earn the PhD in their home country while
   accessing specialist researchers and equipment abroad, at the host
   institute.

The full Call for Applications is attached here, along with a poster which
can be printed and distributed at your institutes, or sent digitally.  We
are also attaching some tips for successful applications. We would greatly
appreciate your help in spreading the word about this opportunity to your
networks and to anyone you think could benefit.
