Who can apply<\/h2>\n\n

The programme page sets these criteria. You must be a currently enrolled doctoral candidate at a university or tertiary institution in sub-Saharan Africa, and a national of a sub-Saharan African country. You also need at least one article from your thesis work in a non-predatory journal, indexed in Scopus or Web of Science.<\/p>\n\n

All disciplines are welcome, including the sciences, humanities, law and social sciences. AGNES offers general grants for male and female candidates, plus special grants for female candidates only. The page says it especially welcomes applications from 29 under-represented African countries and names them, so check that list on the official page.<\/p>\n\n

What you get<\/h2>\n\n

The page lists the grant amounts above, which cover travel, subsistence and a research allowance paid to the host institute (\u20ac100 to \u20ac200 per month depending on the field). It states that AGNES is supported by Germany’s Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. Treat the amounts as maximums, since the page words them as \u00ab\u00a0up to\u00a0\u00bb.<\/p>\n\n

How to apply<\/h2>\n\n
  1. Confirm your eligibility, including the Scopus or Web of Science article, on the official programme page<\/a>.<\/li>
  2. Secure a letter of invitation (in English) from a scientific host in another sub-Saharan African country.<\/li>
  3. Assemble the documents: a research proposal of up to 5 pages in English with a work schedule, the CV in the AGNES template, proof of doctoral registration, academic transcripts, a single PDF listing your published articles with their Scopus or Web of Science URLs and first pages, two travel cost quotes, and a living cost estimate.<\/li>
  4. Submit through the online form linked from the programme page by 16 October 2026, 23:59 GMT. The page sets a 12 MB maximum file size.<\/li>
  5. Wait for the selection meeting in December 2026. The page says selected candidates are notified afterwards.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n
