PhilRice Offers Rice Research Scholarship

Philippine Rice Research Institute (PhilRice) is offering scholarships to scientists, researchers, and thesis students to carry out rice research under the Institute’s research fellowship program.

Grants for research and graduate research assistantship vary from P150,000 to P300,000 (about $3,600 to $7,200) and a monthly stipend of P30,000 to P50,000 (about $720 to $1,120). While the research fellowship will support researchers for six months to two years, graduate research assistantship will be supported for two semesters.

The executive director of the Philippines-based institute said that rice research will help students to grow while also contributing to the nation’s goals of achieving self-sufficiency in rice.
