ThinkSwiss Research Scholarships: Asia-Pacific

ThinkSwiss Research Scholarships is a program that opens doors for students from India, Singapore and Australia to the world of Swiss academia, that combines high quality curriculum with innovative thinking.

The ThinkSwiss Research Scholarship provides a prorated amount according to the length of your stay, maximum up to three months: a monthly scholarship of CHF 1,600 (approx. USD 1,600) for a period of two to three months (CHF 4,800 maximum).

Please note that this amount covers only a portion of the average student’s living expenses and that you will be asked to prove sufficient financial means to the Swiss Cantonal authorities before a visa can be issued (see information on visa below).

The whole amount of the scholarship money will be transferred to the bank account of the recipient shortly after his/her arrival in Switzerland.

To apply for a ThinkSwiss Scholarship you must:

• Currently be enrolled at an accredited Indian, Australian or Singapore university/institute.
• Be a master degree student or a bachelor degree student who will have completed the 2nd year by the time the research stay in Switzerland begins
• Provide a written confirmation from a professor at a Swiss university that he/she will accept you for a research stay in his/her group
