With a SIDA funded Minor Field Studies scholarship, it is possible for you as a final-year student at bachelor's or master's level to carry out your degree project abroad. Meet Helin Bäckman Kartal who will talk about her field study in South Africa within political science. Join us at this digital information meeting.
With the scholarship, you can travel to a low- or middle-income country to collect material for your thesis or degree project. The field study must last for a minimum of 8 consecutive weeks and the scholarship is SEK 27,000. The last day to apply is 15 May.
To apply for a scholarship there are certain criteria you must meet. You must be a registered student at Umeå University, be proficient in English and preferably have basic knowledge of Swedish, be a Swedish citizen or have a permanent residence permit in Sweden. If you are from another Nordic country but not a Swedish citizen you must have been registered in the Swedish Population Registry for at least one year. You must not have started a postgraduate education. For more information regarding eligibility see our website.
