Sub-Saharan African nationals, including Ugandans, graduating with a PhD from 2022 onward or before the end of 2026 may be nominated. Candidates need outstanding academic records, indexed publications and interest in postdoctoral research in Germany. Direct applications are not accepted.
This award recognizes promising African doctoral graduates and supports preparation for Humboldt postdoctoral fellowships. Entry is through an eligible scientific mentor\'s nomination.
Benefits
A one-off EUR 1,000 award, certificate and mentoring toward a Humboldt fellowship application. The award does not guarantee subsequent Humboldt funding.
Requirements
AGNES nomination form and CV; publications with indexing links and first pages; degree certificates and transcripts; and, for humanities candidates, a five-page doctoral abstract. Maximum package size is 15 MB.
How to apply
Arrange nomination by an AGNES member or African Humboldtian. The nominator submits the complete package through the nomination form by 23:59 GMT on 16 October 2026.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
