Description

Faculty of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) of Yogyakarta, Indonesia, invites suitably qualified candidates to apply for a place in the following full-time postgraduate programme, with a focus on implementation research (IR) for the 2025-2027 Academic Year.

Funding for these full scholarships is from TDR, the Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases, based at the World Health Organization in Geneva. Only applicants from low- and middle-income countries of WHO South-East Asia and Western Pacific Regions are eligible.

The scheme focuses on building capacity on IR to address four major global health challenges affecting infectious diseases of poverty using a One Health approach: epidemics and outbreaks; control and elimination of disease of poverty; climate change’s impact on health; and resistance to treatment and control agents.

Those with research experience in implementation research on the above-mentioned areas will be prioritized during the selection process. A limited number of scholarships will be offered for the 2025-2027 academic year in the International Master Programme in Public Health, leading to an MPH degree (2 years duration). The programme is taught in English.

Study Areas

As a part of the MPH, the postgraduate training will comprise modules relevant to a career in IR, a growing field that supports the identification of health system bottlenecks and approaches to addressing them. It is particularly useful in LMICs, where many health interventions do not reach those who could be benefitting from them. The goal of this training scheme is to strengthen the capacity of researchers to gather evidence-based knowledge using sound methodology to incorporate into policies and practices in LMICs.

Further information on implementation research is available from the TDR website .

Scholarship recipients will be enrolled as postgraduate students and conduct their thesis on IR on infectious diseases of poverty with a major focus on epidemics and outbreaks; control and elimination of disease of poverty; climate change’s impact on health; or resistance to treatment and control agents.

The scholarship recipients will have the opportunity to join the global prestigious alumni platform IR Connect, which would monitor the impact of the training programme on their career and allow them to network with other alumni for further career opportunities.

Eligibility for the Scholarship

Applicants should:

• Be nationals of, and residents in, low- and middle-income countries (as defined by the World Bank) of WHO South-East Asia region and Western Pacific Region
• Be under 37 years of age at the time of application for the Master program
• Meet the University requirements for international postgraduate students
• Meet the academic requirements:
  • A bachelor’s degree with a cumulative Grade Point Average of at least 3.00 out of 4
  • AcEPT score of at least 268 or TOEFL score of at least 550 or IELTS score of at least 5

• Consent to meet health requirements in line with regulations of the Indonesian government and UGM
• Be an employee of an academic or research institution, not for profit organization, or ministry of health or its agencies in an LMIC of the WHO South-East Asia region and Western Pacific Region.

The final selection of candidates will be done in conjunction with TDR, considering gender and geographic representation of candidates from the regions.

Equity

TDR is committed to promoting equality, equity, diversity, and inclusivity in science. Researchers are encouraged to apply regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, cultural and social background, or (dis)ability status.
