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 Institute. With the knowledge and skills gained the participants 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 talented health professionals from low- and middle-income countries who do not have access to the financial means or other scholarship opportunities.

Scholarships thanks to donations

KIT Fund is able to offer scholarships thanks to the donations and financial support from individuals, foundations, its alumni and corporate partners. Every year, we depend on the incoming donations, which means that we determine the number of (partial) scholarships we can offer based on the donations received.

We usually offer partial scholarships (which means that participants have to secure additional funding themselves), and e based on thdonations received a few full scholarships. Full scholarships can be for certain countries or topics (for example in line with prioritites of funders).
