Geneva Academy Scholarships

The Geneva Academy Scholarships relate to the Geneva Academy’s two specialized one-year LLM–Master of Advanced Studies programmes: the LLM – MAS in International Humanitarian Law and Human Rights, and the LLM – MAS in International Crimes, Justice and Human Rights. The Geneva Academy is described as a joint centre of the University of Geneva and the Geneva Graduate Institute and offers full-time study.

The scholarships are available to applicants to these programmes. The Geneva Academy states that admissions welcomes candidates from diverse regions and professional backgrounds, and that applicants must demonstrate solid academic potential and a clear commitment to work on issues related to armed conflict, humanitarian protection, and human rights.

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit and financial need. Information on payment modalities and deadlines is provided to admitted candidates together with the offer of admission.

The page provides that a limited number of scholarships are available each year, but it does not state how long scholarship support lasts, what specific conditions keep support in place, or whether there is any obligation after graduation; those fields are therefore null.
