Three days ago, there was a post on how the Government should setup a PhD scholarship scheme for public university (IPTA) lecturers of all races. Today, the Government announces that such a scheme, valued at RM1.2 billion, would be implemented under the Ninth Malaysia Plan (9MP).

This is either prescience, or… sheer forgetfulness. But whatever it is, an allocation of 6,700 PhD scholarships is definitely a Good Thing. Of that amount, 35% are for local studies, 5% for overseas studies, and the remainder for split (a.k.a. twinning) programmes – where the first two years would be done locally, and the last year abroad.

At least now, we can no longer say that University Malaya’s new academic staff policy is biased, though undergraduate students will still be dissatisfied that the Government does not provide non-teaching postgraduate scholarships.

    The Isles Internationale Universite offer PhD studies.

    All Departments at the School of Doctoral Studies (European Union) offer PhD programmes. The minimum time needed to obtain a PhD degree is four years of study and research work. A PhD programme normally consists of two parts: courses and thesis. PhD in the SDS is worth 240 academic credits. Some departments may require that the thesis is part of a project which is underway at the department. A doctoral thesis must be published and publically defended.
