2010 – Cooperative Doctorate Programme (”Sandwich Scheme”) – DAAD – PhD programme – Bangkok – Europe
As a special type of long-term research fellowships the DAAD will provide support for a “sandwich” structure of studies and scholarship combining periods of study and research in Germany with those in the home country of the applicant and leading to a PhD in the home country. The main characteristic of this Sandwich Scheme is the individually tailor-made PhD programme schedule set with the greatest flexibility possible regarding the beginning and duration of each individual funding phase.
Requirements:
- Established contact between the home university and the German institution;
- Applicants must be enrolled in a PhD programme at a university in their home country;
- Academic supervision needs to be secured on both sides, with mutual agreement on the proposed study or research programme between the respective advisers (who may even visit each other for joint monitoring).
- The length of studies and research at a German institution is 1 – maximum 2 years.
Procedure:
- the German university lecturer/professor travels to the homeland of the future doctoral candidate to draw up a joint protocol signed by both the local and the German supervisor, which details the dissertation subject, the planned work measures, and their duration
- preparatory studies and research for the PhD thesis in the home country (data collection and field research) without DAAD funding (special guidelines and procedures apply to some African countries)
- studies and research at a German institution of higher education (1 – maximum 2 years)
- if necessary, visit by the foreign academic supervisor and co advisor at the German institution (progress control, consolidation of institutional contacts)
- completion of the thesis in the home country (without DAAD funding)
- visit of the German supervisor to the home country of the PhD student (last corrections and participation at the viva as external examiner)
Eligibility, application forms and documents for this programme are the same as for research grants for doctoral candidates and young academics and scientists. The extensive and detailed research proposal must be accompanied by a work- and time schedule agreed upon by the academic advisors, both in the home country and in Germany.
Application deadline:
15th October each year
