Italian PhD Scholarships Version 10 updated on 15-09-2023.

Dear all, students who are applying for PhD scholarships. Gear up for Italian PhD rainfall. 39th cycle in Italy of
PhD Scholarships in every field. 500 above PhD offers will be updated from February to November 2023. From
now I will try to update the offers time by time in file attached. This is the tenth version of the year 2023. But
We have above 350
keep on checking the PhD scholarships at Italian universities yourself as well.
selected students in 2022 from Pakistan due to this file system and guidance of
this group
Why I say to apply for PhD in Italy?
1) The Italian PhD offers are not normally posted in many International Scholarship Websites. But we find them
and post them in Scholarship Network group. As a result of this thing, last year maximum number of Pakistanis
availed PhD Scholarships in Italy.
2) Scholarships are offered in all fields from Social Sciences to Engineering etc. But you must open the links
and find your desired fields
3) You get more chances if you apply in many universities. The only bottleneck is application fee of university,
which you can have to submit in many universities. Few universities have no application fee. But if you are able
to apply in many universities with application fee. Then, you will have good chances of selection. To submit
application fee abroad. See this file: http://goo.gl/r2TM6k. If you have the money, then keep a budget of
approx. 150 Euros (25 thousand Pakistani Rupees) for application fee of universities as application fee for each
university varies from 10 to 25 Euros and apply in as many universities so to have maximum chances of
selection in any one university. If you do not have this much money, then apply in one or two universities only
for which you can afford the application fee.
4) IELTS/TOEFL is Not required for PhD in most of universities. But if you, have it, you will have good chances
of selection. No Research Publications are required. Low CGPA Holders can apply. Visas of PhD students are
issued without any rejections. Duration of PhD is 03 years.
5) Result awaiting students can apply. But they must check individual offers to see until what date they can
submit final result on respective universities websites/offers. You can also email university representative to
ask about it.
*** Important Tip 1: Try to contact professors in universities. It is not mandatory/compulsory. But as you know
for PhD, it is always good to have contact with professors. Try to have good conversation with them as you will
be sure also then that your application will not be wasted. But I say again it is not mandatory/compulsory.
You can/ should apply online even without contacting professors. So, if you do not contact professors, you can
apply, it is fine as well. Do not ask professors for acceptance letters here as professor have no authority over
admission process.
*** Tip 2: Use translators extensively, I normally give English links of Italian pages, but if you find the links in
Italian then you can translate them.
*** Tip 3: Now so many Pakistani students in many Italian universities. So, find them and ask them if their lab
is hiring
*** Tip 4: I have posted English links, if you have any issue in using them, then try to translate using google

****** Most Important Tip: After applying, keep on checking selection/interview lists yourself on university
websites after applying online. They will/may not email you for your selection in most of the cases. Do
follow up waiting lists later. Such as second, third, fourth merit lists. As selected people leave places and
you can get vacant seats of them
*** The new universities are added in this list are in red color

Best of luck:
