    • have already lived in Sweden for two or more years when the scholarship period begins
    • already have a permanent Swedish residence permit
    • have a Swedish work permit and are currently employed in Sweden
    • apply for a scholarship at the PhD level but are not enrolled in ongoing PhD studies outside of Sweden
    • apply for a scholarship at postdoctoral level, but do not hold a PhD degree
    • have already been awarded three or more scholarships/grants from SI.
  • Are there any limitations to the scholarship?
    • The scholarship is designed to cover living costs for the scholarship holder. There are no grants for family members. No funding for bench fees is provided.
    • The granted scholarship period cannot be altered, postponed or extended. However, it is possible to apply for subsequent funding through a new call for applications.
    • In case of a postponed arrival date, the scholarship period may be reduced accordingly.
  • How is the selection made?

    Applications are evaluated by the Swedish Institute (SI) and an independent academic board. The primary evaluation takes into account the applicant’s academic background, personal motivation and deemed ability to contribute to the overall aims of the Visby Programme, including potential to contribute to the development of his/her country or region. The academic evaluation specifically looks at the strength of the research proposal with regards to its scientific quality, originality, methodological approach and relevance.

    In the final selection of candidates SI will take into consideration the distribution of scholarships between  academic fields, universities, purpose of study, nationality and gender.

  • What is the SI Network for Future Global Leaders

    All Swedish Institute scholarship holders are invited to become members of the SI Network for Future Global Leaders (NFGL), a network that offers unique opportunities during the stay in Sweden. Together with other talented people from all around the world, the scholarship holder is able to take part in a variety of events, exchange ideas and create networks that could benefit both career and personal development.

    After the scholarship period, all scholarship holders are also invited to the SI Alumni Network, a global network that helps deepen the relationship with Sweden, as well as other alumni, even after the programme.
