About this opportunity

Rolling proof-of-concept funding supporting entrepreneurial cyber-defence technologies, with eligible projects receiving funding for personnel and development costs over approximately twelve months.

Benefits
Projects may receive up to CHF 130,000 for personnel and development costs directly related to the proof-of-concept work. The normal project duration is approximately 12 months. Fellows also gain access to the Cyber-Defence Campus environment and relevant technical and innovation expertise.

Requirements
Applicants must propose a concrete cyber-defence proof of concept with clear technical objectives and potential practical or commercial impact and satisfy the programme\'s degree and Swiss-host requirements. Required application documents must be submitted in English. The programme uses a staged evaluation process, with applicants selected after the initial stage required to develop the proposal further with the relevant mentoring and host arrangements.

How to apply
Review the current Proof of Concept Fellowship guidelines and submit the initial application through EPFL\'s online research-funding platform. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Candidates invited to the next stage must complete the fuller proposal and associated host or mentor requirements.

Find scholarships, postgraduate study and internships

Explore opportunities from Uganda and abroad. Location describes where an opportunity is based; check the official eligibility rules to confirm whether Ugandan, African or other international applicants can apply.

Fully funded scholarships in Canada, the USA and Europe

Compare undergraduate, master's and PhD awards by eligible nationality, subject and funding coverage. A tuition waiver does not necessarily cover living costs, insurance or travel. For medical study, confirm the exact degree and whether clinical training is included. High school awards have different age and admission requirements from university scholarships.

For US universities offering full scholarships, check the university's international admissions and financial aid pages. Confirm whether admission and funding require separate applications, and whether support is renewable each year.

Paid internships abroad and online internships

For internships in Europe or elsewhere, check nationality and enrolment requirements, the stipend, accommodation and travel coverage. Paid does not necessarily mean fully funded. Remote internships may still restrict the countries where participants can work. To intern abroad without programme fees, compare direct employer applications and check which costs you must pay yourself.

For summer placements, verify the start date and application year in the official call. Search the listings for a provider or subject, such as Expedia, EU delegation traineeships or agriculture in Germany, and confirm availability with that organisation.

NGO jobs, entry-level jobs and internships in Uganda

Check the posting date, closing date, duty station and required experience. For jobs with no experience, look for an explicit entry-level or graduate requirement; an urgent vacancy may still require experience. Verify American Embassy vacancies through the embassy's official recruitment service and New Vision vacancies against the original employer notice.

Application years and named scholarship programmes

Use the intake and deadline in each listing when comparing 2026 and 2027 opportunities. A 2022 notice is historical unless the provider has published a new call. Before applying to Yale Young African Scholars or an opportunity described as a UNICEF scholarship, verify the programme name, funding and current eligibility directly with the organisation. A search phrase alone does not confirm an available award.
