I am a Nigerian, currently on a PhD programme in Geography (Hydrology). I am trying to find if solute-discharge hystresis patterns will be able to elucidate hydrological pathways better than the previous methods. My program is in Nigeria but I wish to source for fellowship (partly or fully) to complete a year of my thesis writing elsewhere after data collection in December this year. Can anyone suggest some countries or institutes?Don't suggest DAAD as I just apply there waiting for result. I will be glad if you suggest any other.

I think you will be very lucky to find funding for a writing up year. Even fully funded UK studentships do not fund additional time for thesis writing (if this extends beyond the usual 3 years of funded project time).

Thank you Ann, then do you have any suggestion for me?

I'm sorry, I don't have any useful suggestions. Perhaps the FindAPhD team can comment?

See our Funding and PhDs Explained sections for links and information.

Sorry Bayo, the Association of Commonwealth Universities is probably woth looking at, but funds for writing up are quite hard to find.

The reason you haven't had an answer of us earlier is that if we had to write a reply to every question we can't answer on this forum, we'd never answer the ones we can. We also don't usually answer if somebody (like Ann) has already said all that we could. Good luck
