The Africa Talent Programme (ATP) has been initiated by Wageningen University & Research to give top talents from Africa the opportunity to study towards a PhD or obtain a postdoc position at Wageningen University.
ELIGIBILITY:
The selection committee would like to receive applications from countries across the African continent and especially encourages female candidates to apply.
You are only eligible for a PhD position if you meet the entry requirements of Wageningen University for a PhD. If a candidate does not have a master’s degree yet, but will obtain one in the near future this can be stated in the application. In case an application for a postdoc position is made, candidates must have a recognized doctoral degree or a set date of PhD award in the near future. In both cases the applicant must be fluent in spoken and written scientific English.
Only a professor* at Wageningen University can submit an application to the Africa Talent Programme. Therefore, you will have to find a Wageningen professor who will endorse your application (list of chair groups and contact information can be found here). A professor of Wageningen University may only submit one application.
