University of Zurich Fully-funded PhD Scholarships for International Students
The UBS Center Scholarship are full scholarships awarded every year to outstanding
university graduates to enable them to take up their doctoral studies at the
Zurich Graduate School of Economics, run by the
Department of Economics at the University of Zurich. Furthermore, by funding new endowed
chairs at the Department of Economics, the UBS Center will create additional doctoral
positions for talented young researchers beyond the scholarship scheme.
Scholarships are open to graduates from around the world, they are awarded to candidates on the grounds of outstanding academic merit, and continuing support will be subject to satisfactory completion of course work. While preference may be given to students whose research plans include areas of interest of the UBS International Center of Economics in Society, applications from all areas are welcomed.
Admission to the Zurich Graduate School of Economics is a pre-condition for being considered for a UBS Center Scholarship.
The UBS Center Scholarships are full scholarships, covering living expenses and all fees. Scholarship holders are free to choose their supervisor and have no mandatory duties beyond the completion of the course work and their doctorate. We do however encourage students to contribute to departmental teaching because it is in their own interest to acquire good teaching skills.
