YBhg. Tan Sri / Dato' / Prof. / Assoc. Prof. / Dr. / Sir / Madam / Br. / Sr. ,

We are pleased to inform you that the Embassy of France in Malaysia has recently launched 2023 calls for mobility programmes. This is their initiative to support students and researchers from Malaysia who wish to pursue graduate training in France or who aim at developing strong academic or research programmes with Higher Education institutions in France.

1) Master studies and pre-doctoral mobility: 12-month scholarships for students wishing to enrol in a Master’s programme in France (M1 + M2) or only M2, with the objective of pursuing their studies through a PhD in France (preferably in co-direction or cotutelle). In this case, the M2 internship will be the opportunity for them to get acquainted with their potential PhD director and set the ground for their PhD research work.

2) Doctoral mobility: financial support for PhD students, preferably engaged in a co-direction or cotutelle programme, and wishing to perform a research stay in France (3-6 months).

3) Mobility for researchers and lecturers: one-month stays in France allowing for the researcher or lecturer to launch a new research or training collaboration programme - or develop an existing programme in a significant way.

Scope

These calls target all areas of study and research, including science, technology, engineering, humanities, social sciences, etc. French as a Foreign Language is the only exception.
