Tips for this research opportunity
Practical Job and Scholarship guidance. These tips do not replace official rules or create new eligibility requirements.
- Match your research background to the project, laboratory, supervisor and required methods rather than applying only from the title.
- Prepare a focused academic CV, transcripts, publications and research statement or proposal when requested by the official call.
- Confirm funding duration, stipend/salary, tuition coverage, start date and eligibility for international applicants.
- Contact a supervisor before applying only when the official instructions recommend or require it.
Verification notes
Verified through the official DAAD scholarship database with Cabo Verde as origin and the German Embassy Lisbon Cabo Verde 2027/28 scholarship page. DAAD lists a 24 September 2026 deadline for the round with funding from May 2027 and a later March 2027 round; this record is deliberately scoped to the first round.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
