Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST) / ARIPO Opportunities

The 24-month MPhil in Intellectual Property runs from October 2026 to June 2028, with a residential first year at KNUST followed by a dissertation phase. ARIPO states that a limited number of scholarships will cover a return air ticket, board and lodging at KNUST, tuition and registration fees, and medical insurance. The official call does not state a cash stipend or scholarship count, so neither is inferred.

Applicants need at least a recognised bachelor's degree at Second Class Lower level in a STEM or Social Science discipline and at least two years of work experience. Applicants from countries where English is not an official language must provide evidence of proficiency through an internationally approved English examination. Scholarship selection is limited to brilliant but needy students enrolling in the 2026/2027 academic year.
