A PhD scholarship is a type of funding that awards an amount of money to an individual student to help them complete a PhD (or other type of doctorate). In the majority of law schools worldwide, studying international law is regarded as costly. Securing a PhD post in international law is an expensive endeavor for students from other countries. The general consensus is that law students from underdeveloped nations should pursue their PhDs in nations with access to cutting-edge educational resources.
The situation is not different from military operations. Military training requires special skills and education, which most countries lack. The government of Denmark provides annual opportunities for international students who wish to pursue the above-mentioned curses in the country. The faculty of law department of the University of Copenhagen in Denmark is currently inviting students from all over the world to its fully funded PhD positions in international law and military operations. The fully funded scholarship provides opportunities for thorough research on contemporary legal issues in an intellectual environment.
Unusually, this particular PhD position is offered in collaboration with the Royal Danish Defence College (RDDC). The PhD will be assigned a co-supervisor from the RDDC and is expected to divide his/her time between the two institutions.
The PhD Scholarship, apart from being fully funded, also makes available salaries for participants. The PhD, which will be opened in December 2023, is part of the many PhD programs available at the Law Faculty. The main aim of the scholarship is to prepare candidates for a continuing career in research and teaching. Candidates, after their training, will impact the knowledge of a new generation of scholars through their teaching.
Both domestic and international students can apply for the PhD scholarship. Applicants must also obtain a degree that is admissible to the Danish Master of Law Degree with a maximum overall grade average of 8.2 or above master’s level in accordance with the Danish grading system.
