Applications for Swiss government scholarships for postgraduate programs in Tajikistan for the 2026–2027 academic year are now open, according to the Swiss Cooperation Office in Tajikistan.
The program covers three tracks: doctoral studies (PhD), postdoctoral studies, and research internships. It does not include master's programs or art programs.
Scholarships are awarded on a competitive basis and cover full tuition fees as well as living expenses.
Applicants must hold a Master's degree, have received confirmation of academic supervision from a professor at a Swiss university, and have not resided in the country for more than one year at the time of application.
"We recommend that applicants begin preparing their documents well in advance, as finding a supervisor can take time," the office noted.
Applications will be accepted until November 28, 2025. Detailed information on the application process is available on the official websites of the Swiss Cooperation Office in Tajikistan.
