Scholarship opportunities from KIT Fund
KIT Fund offers scholarships to talented health professionals from low-income countries to study a Master’s programme at KIT Royal Tropical Institute. The aim being that with what they learn they will contribute to improving the health care situation in their country and/or around the world.
KIT Fund aims to contribute to that by offering scholarships to health professionals from low- and middle-income countries who have few other scholarship opportunities.
Scholarships thanks to donations
KIT Fund is able to offer scholarships thanks to the donations and financial support from different organisations, foundations, alumni and other donors. Every year, we depend on the donations coming in, which means that we only know how many (partial) scholarships we can offer during the year.
We usually offer partial scholarships (which means that participants have to find additional funding themselves), and only if finances allow a few full scholarships. Full scholarships are often only for certain countries or on certain topics (in line with preferences with funding organisations).
Partial Scholarship for Master Programme
We are happy to be able to offer a number of partial scholarships for the Master of Public Health and Health Equity for academic year 2026-2027. The scholarship is for applicants from low- and middle-income countries. The scholarship covers the tuition fee, and applicants need to have other funding to cover the remaining costs.
Application period: 15 December 2025 – 15 February 2026
More opportunities from KIT Fund
If any other opportunities from KIT Fund come, we will add them here. We advise people to already get academic admission. Please keep a close look to this page for updates!
We hope to be able to offer extra scholarships. In that case we will announce them as soon as possible. They will however be for specific regions, thematic focus areas (for example Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights and Gender based violence) or certain regions.
At this moment KIT Fund only has scholarships for full time Master’s programmes, not for short courses.
