Important news! Due to several drop outs, we decided to open one last call for application within the KITE project. Until September 10th, 2016, you can apply for a mobility at one of our EU partner Universities. Please note that this call is open for MA Exchange students only and the mobility will take place during spring semester 2017. Nigeria, Gambia and Togo nationals are ineligible for this call as we already distributed full quota for these countries. All other ACP nationals are welcome to apply. Furthermore, we decided to offer several staff scholarships too. In that case, the deadline is September 30th, 2016. All candidates selected within this call have to start their mobility by the end of 2016 (December 31st, 2016 the latest).

What is Kite?
KITE is a mobility scheme for academic cooperation between higher education institutions from the African, Caribbean and Pacific regions (ACP). KITE provides scholarships for students (or prospective students) and staff (both academic and administrative) from the ACP region to carry out their study or research in selected high-quality partner institutions in the EU.
Aiming to support the establishment of cooperation partnerships between European higher education institutions and higher education institutions in the ACP, the project is also open to staff from the EU to realize their mobility to ACP partner institutions. Funded by the European Commission, KITE covers travel expenses, insurance, fees and a monthly allowance for selected grant holders. Virtually anyone involved (or previously involved) in higher education will be given the opportunity to participate!
