TWAS-SN Bose Postgraduate Fellowships
TWAS-SN Bose Postgraduate Fellowships Applicants may be registered for a PhD degree in their home country (SANDWICH option), or may enroll in a PhD course at the S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences (FULL-TIME option). In both cases, the programme entails only one journey to the host country.
Admission to the PhD programme at the S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences will depend on the successful completion of coursework (about one year's duration).
S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences will provide a monthly stipend to cover living costs and food. The monthly stipend will not be convertible into foreign currency. Free on-campus accommodation will be provided. The monthly stipend does not cover comprehensive health insurance.
The Centre does however deduct a small contribution towards a Contributory Medical Scheme. The benefits are partial reimbursement of doctor's fees, medicine costs, if any, and only for costs incurred at Kolkata. The reimbursement structure is at par with the Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) of the Government of India.
The S.N. Bose National Centre for Basic Sciences does not provide comprehensive health or medical insurance to its staff or students. All SN Bose-TWAS fellows must have their own "Medical Insurance" before joining the programme to cover medical emergencies.
