The Centre of African Studies offers 3 MSc
scholarships to African residents as part of the Governance for Development in
Africa Initiative funded by the Mo Ibrahim Foundation.
In order to be considered for funding, applicants
must first secure a place for the MSc by applying directly to the SOAS admissions office.
Once the place is secured, the applicants can
apply for the scholarship. Candidates will be assessed on academic merit by a
panel consisting of SOAS academic members. The assessment of your application
will be based on the information in your scholarship application. Selectors
will be looking at the following:
- academic
achievement and evidence of critical analytical capabilities;
- references;
- supporting
statement;
- evidence
of interest in and knowledge of linkages between governance and
development
Please note that CAS reserves the right not to
award scholarships and will only award them where there are applicants judged
to meet sufficiently high academic standards and with demonstrable interests in
fields relevant to the objectives of the GDAI.
Deadline to apply: 30 April 2014
