In order to promote international co-operation, particularly with Developing Countries (re. World Bank list), the University of Pavia and EDiSU (Institute of the Right to University Studies) are offering 5 scholarships to visiting scholars for the year 2021 for a period of stay of 4 to 12 weeks at the University of Pavia.

Eligibility Criteria:

  • Applicants must have at least two years of either teaching experience or activity within international organizations and institutions. 
  • Scholarships are designed for both junior and senior members of Universities in Developing Countries or members of major research centers and international organizations or institutions with a specific interest in the field of development studies. 
  • CICOPS scholarships are reserved for research collaboration in the short term in order to encourage the mobility of researchers from developing countries.
  • Applicants enrolled in a Doctoral or Postgraduate Course at an Italian University are not eligible to apply.

Benefits:

The scholarship includes travel (economy class), food and accommodation expenses, health insurance policy, and a contribution of 150.00 Euro (gross) per week.

Evaluation Criteria:

A decision will be made by November 30th, 2020 by a Committee composed of the President of CICOPS and another two members designated by the Rector. In the issuing of the ranking, the Committee will take into account: 

  • the scientific relevance of the proposed project, especially when integrated with similar projects developed by the University of Pavia;
  • the Curriculum Vitae of the candidate;
  • the fair distribution of grants between the department involved and the geographical regions of origin of the applicants. 

In the case of scientific and professional value being equal, preference will be given to:

  • applicants employed by Universities/Institutions linked to the University of Pavia with a pre-existing Cooperation Agreement.
  • applicants from lower-income economies, according to the World Bank list. 

The Committee reserves the right to check the validity of declarations and supporting documents asking for the submission of appropriate documentary evidence in an original or certified copy. False statements may lead to exclusion from the selection process and/or the award of the scholarship.

Scholarship Recipient's Responsibilities:

The selected scholar may be requested to deliver one or more lectures on his/her field of research. At the end of the study period in Pavia, scholars must provide both a report on the work completed at the host Department and copies of any articles or publications.
