HIGHER EDUCATION SCHOLARSHIPS FOR KURDISH STUDENTS
Since its foundation in 1983, the Kurdish Institute has paid particular attention to the education of young and talented Kurdish students. To this end, a higher education scholarship programme has been established for the benefit of Kurdish students of all backgrounds, selected on the basis of merit. To date, more than 600 young people, 45% of them women, have benefited from this programme of excellence. Our former scholarship recipients have become university professors, researchers, engineers, lawyers, diplomats and writers, and play an important role in Kurdish intellectual, cultural and social life.
Conditions
The competition is open to all students from Kurdistan, with the exception of citizens of Iraqi Kurdistan, who now have their own government and universities. Applicants must hold a Bachelor's degree or a Master's degree. They must not already be receiving a scholarship or study grant from another public or private organisation. The age limit is 30. Married applicants, those holding the nationality of a European country or residing in a Western country are not eligible.
Applicants must have an overall average grade of at least 80/100 for their Bachelor's or Master's degree.
