Welcome to the home of scholarships, we want to educate you on the government of Ireland scholarship program 2022 for international students.

The Ireland Government Scholarship 2022 is funded by the Department of Education and Skills and managed by the Council.

The Irish Scholarship Programme is highly competitive.

The Ireland Scholarship for international students is an opportunity for all those who are willing to pursue their Research MS and Ph.D. or Direct Ph.D. (MS leading to Ph.D.).

Number of scholarships available for international students

It is expected that a total of 60 scholarships will be funded by the Government of Ireland International Education Scholarships for the academic year 2022.

The program provides outstanding students with the opportunity to direct their own research at the early-career stage, working with a supervisor, in their chosen area of interest.

Pioneering proposals addressing new and emerging fields of research or those introducing creative, innovative approaches are welcomed.

Proposals of an interdisciplinary nature are also encouraged as it is recognized that advancing fundamental understanding is achieved by integrating information, techniques, tools, and perspectives from two or more disciplines.

Successful applicants who become scholars under the program are recognized as demonstrating world-class potential as future research leaders and in the quality of their ideas.

Sometimes the professor helps you in preparing proposals and applications and sometimes you will have to do it all by yourself.

The scholarship is not in the hands of professors/advisors. IRC will grant scholarships but applications are to be sent with the collaboration of the adviser.
