Irish Aid Casement Fellowship Program in Human Rights 2019 for Master’s Study in Ireland (Nigerians Only)

Deadline: November 30, 2018

Applications are open for the Irish Aid Casement Fellowship Program in Human Rights 2019 for Master’s Study in Ireland. Under the Casement fellowship, full financial support is provided for one-year full-time post-graduate education for candidates from Nigeria to undertake a one year master’s level course of study in Human Rights in Ireland.

The purpose of the Irish Aid Casement Fellowship Programme is to provide talented candidates with the opportunity to pursue advanced education and professional development in Ireland in order to contribute to the future development of Nigeria.

The Roger Casement fellowship has been established to honour the memory of the Irish human rights activist Roger Casement who spent some of his early working life in Calabar, Nigeria. He was an early advocate for human rights while in Nigeria, and, famously, during his later work in the Congo, the Amazon and in Ireland. With his humanitarian legacy in mind, it has been decided to support one Nigerian student to study a master’s degree in human rights in Ireland.

Cost

  • The Irish Aid Casement Fellowship Program normally covers: return airfares, full tuition, stipends to cover accommodation and subsistence costs, health insurance and other allowances, in addition to the necessary entry arrangements such as medical examination and visa.

Eligibility

  • Candidates must be a citizen of Nigeria and be residing in Nigeria;
  • Have achieved the necessary academic standard to be accepted onto a master’s level course of study in Human Rights;
  • Have a minimum of three years’ relevant work experience;
  • Be able to demonstrate a strong commitment to the development of Nigeria;
  • Be able to take up the fellowship in the academic year for which it is offered;
  • Meet any relevant procedural requirements of Government of Nigeria;
  • Be able to demonstrate skills in academic English by achieving an appropriate score on a recognised test (e.g. IELTS 6.5).

Application

All applicants who are selected to go forward to second stage will be required to sit an IELTS exam, unless they are already in possession of an IELTS certificate that is less than 12 months old at the time of application which shows the applicant has achieved the necessary score for the course they intend to apply to. Early preparation for the IELTS exam is strongly advised, even for native English speakers.
