  • C. Have sufficient knowledge of the language of the courses in the host countries.

 

Exchange opportunities (Masters and PHD) –

Students registered as full-degree students at one of the partner universities comprising the consortium, spend a short period (10 months and less) at one of the other institutions in the consortium and return to their home institution after the exchange period to complete their degree at the home institution. Exchange students will spend their period at the host university as researchers mainly, being engaged in literature reviews, specialised theoretical or methodological training, or field studies and they will closely co-operate with their African (host) and African (home) supervisors.

 

In addition to the above criteria there may be others defined internally by the partner institution to which you are applying. It is strongly recommended that applicants liaise with the relevant contact persons at the host institution and carefully read the "Guidelines for Applicants" and institutional and study programme information prior to submitting application.
