AZIZ SANCAR DOCTORAL SCHOLARSHIPS ABROAD
Ankara Medipol University offers students who have demonstrated outstanding success in the Higher Education Institutions Exam (YKS) and successfully completed our undergraduate and integrated master's programs the opportunity to pursue doctoral studies at the world's leading universities.
The main purpose of these scholarship programs is to support our students in shaping their careers around scientific research by receiving high-quality academic training in fundamental research fields. The program increases the motivation of students who turn to research from their undergraduate years and aims to train them as researchers capable of making innovative contributions on a global scale.
Under this program, which aims to support the development of internationally qualified researchers, students admitted to a fee-paying doctoral program in the basic sciences at one of the top 50 universities in the Times Higher Education World University Rankings will have their total annual funding supplemented up to a maximum of USD 40,000 per year for 3+1 years. Coverage of tuition fees by the University is carried out under the Ankara Medipol University Aziz Sancar Doctoral Scholarship Directive. In determining the Aziz Sancar Doctoral Scholarship;
(1) Depending on the funding structure of the doctoral program to which the candidate has been admitted, one or more of the following types of support may apply:
a) Fully funded doctoral admission: Where tuition fees and adequate living expense support are covered by the host institution or third parties, the scholar may be provided with travel support within the number and upper limits to be determined annually.
b) Doctoral admission with partial living expense funding: Where tuition fees are fully covered or waived but the stipend or living support falls below the adequate level determined by the University, the documented funding gap may be covered up to a maximum of USD 40,000 per year.
c) Doctoral admission without living expense funding: Where tuition fees are fully covered but there is no stipend or equivalent living support, living expense support may be provided taking into account the cost of living in the country and city of the host institution.
(2) The support to be provided is calculated taking into account all of the candidate's external funding sources. No duplicate payments are made for the same expense.
(3) Payments may be made in Turkish lira or in a foreign currency deemed appropriate.
