This means candidates with a foreign Master’s degree (e.g. MSc or MA) that would grant them access to PhD programmes in the country where the degree was conferred are entitled to apply.

Candidates who have already benefited from a PhD scholarship, regardless of the place and year, are not eligible for another scholarship.
