within
the "Sandn'ich
Model"
Objective
Whereas conventional sciiolarships for doctorate or PhD studies assume tliat a scholarship holcler rvill stay at a Gerr.uan institLrtion of higher education for several cousecutive years, the "Sandrvich Scheme"
clescribed hereafter is a flexible mr-rlti phase funding prograntme. Within the Sandwiclt Scheme, PhD students carry
ollt their
lesearch and studies alternatelyin
their
home couutry andin
Germany, follor,virrg a scheclule set in ,advance and under continuous supervisionby
Inclonesian and Gennanacaclemics. The doctorate is obtainecl at the Inclonesian Lrniversily. Purpose
Within the
academicfunding
schemesof
numerous developinent countries, training arrd fuilhereducation of firture and young universitl'teachers is given special prioriry. Besides specialisation and increasirrg previously gained knor,viedge, students very often strive for a PhD or doctorate degree as
freqLrently lequired according to the regulations ruling university careers in their lrome country. Even in cases where PhD str-ldies wor"rld be possible in the student's horne country, a doctorate degree fi'om
arr industrial nation is often preferred for reasons of prestige. PhD studies abroad, liowever, carry witlr them rislcs: of alienation connected witlt very long study courses, loss of origirially reserved Iectr-rring posts at the horne university, of research geared too much to the developed country and its needs, and finally the risk of ternplation to settle in tire host country.
Li an effoft to rninimize these risks, the DAAD has developed the scheme of cooperative PhD funding (Sandwich-Scholalships) for nationals of developing countries lvhose universities offer doctorates. Procedure
This nleans the procedure cau be as follor.r,s:
o
the Gertlat Lmivelsify Iecturer/professor tlavels to the Indonesia of the fi;ture doctoral candidate to draw up ajoint
protocol signed by both tlie Indonesian and the German supervisor, which details the disserlation subject, the planned work measures, and tlreir dLrratior-r.
preparatory studies and research for the PirD thesis in Indonesia (data collection and field research) withoutDAAD
fundingo
studies and research at a German institution of higher education (maximum 2 years).
if necessary, visit by the foreign academic supervisor and co advisor at the German institution (progress control, consoIidation of institr-rtional contacts)r
completion of the thesis in Indonesia (withor-rt DAAD funding).
visit of the German supervisor to Indonesia (last corrections and participation at the viva asexternal examiner)
The
main characteristicof
this
Sandwich schemeis
the
individually tailor-rnade PhD programme schedule set with the greatestflexibility
possible regarding the beginning and duration of eacli inclividual funding phase.Eligibility, application forms and documents forthis prograrnlre are the same as for researcli grants for doctoral candidates and young academics and scientists. The extensive and detailed research proposai must be accornpanied by a work- and time schedule agreed upon by the acadeilic aclvisors, both in
