Application Deadline: 17 February 2026Applications are now open for the 2026 Ghent University Doctoral Scholarships. With support from its “Special Research Fund” (BOF) Ghent University grants PhD “sandwich” scholarships to promising PhD students from Global South countries who wish to carry out half of their PhD research at Ghent University (‘North’) and half at a university in the Global South (‘South’). Ghent University only finances the part of the research that will be carried out in Ghent (24 months). That is why a Ghent University supervisor can support maximum 2 candidates per call on condition they are both of a different gender.
