Program Details

Our Visiting PhD Fellowship Programme gives registered doctoral students the opportunity to utilize the resources and facilities at UNU-WIDER for their PhD dissertation or thesis research on developing economies and to work with our researchers in areas of mutual interest.

Visiting PhD fellows typically spend three consecutive months at UNU-WIDER before returning to their home institution. During the programme, fellows prepare one or more research papers and present a seminar on their research findings. They may also be able to publish their research in the WIDER Working Paper Series.

Eligibility

Applicants must be enrolled in a PhD programme and have shown the ability to research developing economies. Candidates working in other social sciences may apply but should keep in mind that UNU-WIDER is an economics-focused institute. Candidates should be fluent in oral and written English and possess good quantitative or qualitative analytical skills. Applications from suitably qualified early-career, female, and developing country researchers are particularly encouraged. The programme is primarily addressed to researchers in the later stages of their PhD.

The Visiting PhD Fellowship Programme is highly competitive, and only a limited number of fellows can be accepted. In recent years, one per cent of all applications have been successful.
