Scholarships for Developing Countries in Italy

The Sandwich Training Educational Programme (STEP) aims at offering IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) fellowship opportunities to Ph.D. students from developing countries in the fields of physics and mathematics.

The goal of STEP is to strengthen the scientific capability of young scientists and researchers from developing countries to better contribute and serve the scientific, technical, and economic development of their home countries.

The ICTP, with the support and close collaboration of the IAEA Technical Cooperation Programme, offers fellowships to candidates from the IAEA member States in the following fields of training:

Atomic, nuclear physics
Nuclear, isotope and laser techniques applied to: human health; agriculture; biotechnology and biophotonics; water resources and environmental studies
Synchrotron radiation and applications
Biophotonics
Medical radiation physics

Fellowship are also provided by the ICTP, within its scientific and technical competence, to candidates from developing countries in the fields listed below:

Condensed matter and statistical physics
High energy physics
Mathematics
Earth system physics
Applied physics The programme benefits also from the financial assistance of the CEI (Central European Initiative) which supports candidates from CEI countries, and of the UNESCO-ICTP Mori Fellowship Scheme which supports candidates from Sub-Saharan Africa.

Scholarships for Developing Countries in Italy - Location of Training

Training and/or research work will take place in one of the following institutions located in the Trieste geographical area:

The ICTP,

Structure of the Scheme;

Applications are expected from students in developing countries who are enrolled in a PhD course at their home university. PhD students who are supervised by an ICTP Associate are encouraged to apply.

The programme aims at an equitable participation of fellows, and therefore especially welcomes applications from woman scientists.

Awards are assigned by the merit of the thesis proposed by the home country advisor, as decided by the STEP selection committee.

Once a STEP fellow is selected, the ICTP will assign the fellow to the appropriate host institute with a designated co-advisor.

The advisors from both the home and the host institutes will jointly supervise the fellow’s research.

The two advisors are expected to coordinate the research and training work of the fellow, which is concluded when the fellow student obtains the PhD at his home institute.

The fellowships are awarded for a period of at least three months to be spent by the fellows at host institutes during the first year.

Pending the approval of the host institute and the two supervisors, the fellowship is renewable for up to two additional successive years.

Fellowships in Public Health & Tropical Medicine

Fellowships in Public Health & Tropical Medicine support outstanding researchers from low- and middle-income countries to establish themselves as leading investigators at an academic institution in a low- and middle-income country location.

Research projects should be aimed at understanding and controlling diseases (either human or animal) of relevance to local, national or global health.

Public Health Fellowship Eligibility

Applications are only accepted in the Public Health and Tropical Medicine Interview Committee remit. This covers research on infectious and non-communicable diseases within the fields of public health and tropical medicine that is aimed at understanding and controlling diseases (either human or animal) of relevance to local, national or global health.

This can include laboratory based molecular analysis of field or clinical samples, but projects focused solely on studies in vitro or using animal models will not normally be considered under this scheme.

You must be a national or legal resident of a low- and middle- income country, and be either a:

graduate in a subject relevant to public health or tropical medicine (for example; biomedical or social science, veterinary medicine, physics, chemistry or mathematics) with a PhD and at least five years' postdoctoral experience, or
medical graduate with a higher qualification equivalent to membership of the UK Royal College of Physicians (i.e. qualified to enter higher specialist training), or be recognised as a specialist within a relevant research area, and have at least five years' research experience.

Applicants who do not have a PhD but who are educated to first degree or Master's level and have substantial research experience, as evidenced by their publication record, may be considered.

Public Health Fellowship Applications

Fellowships are for up to five years in the first instance and provide support that includes:

a basic salary
research expenses (e.g. consumables, equipment, collaborative travel, research assistance, technical support, fieldwork and data collection)
training costs where appropriate and justified
an inflation allowance and support to attend scientific meetings.

Contributions to costs of the project that are directly incurred by the overseas institution may also be provided.

The salary should normally be based on the pay scales of the employing institution and must be justified by the head of the institution.

The salary level should be appropriate for the holder of a competitive grant and allow him/her to focus full time on research.

If the fellow is already in receipt of a salary from the host institution, the host institution may use the salary to pay for a replacement member of staff while we provide the fellow's salary for the duration of the fellowship.

It is not expected that the fellow will hold a salary in addition to the one provided by the Trust.

Overseas allowances will be provided for periods of training or collaborative research spent outside the home institution country, where appropriate.

Research-dedicated costs (excluding salary costs) should not exceed £100 000 per annum.
