Sida’s global research programmes

5.5 Academic Theses

In 2014, 36 students graduated with a PhD and 148 students graduated with an MSc, MPhil or Licentate degree, in ISP-supported research groups and networks (Table 17).

Sixteen PhD students had trained on a sandwich basis (44%; 2 of them female), and 20 as a result of local training (6 of them female). In all, 22% of the PhD graduates were female.

There were only 5 sandwich MSc (etc.) graduates (3%), 3 females and 2 males. The majority of MSc (etc.) students, 143, graduated in local programs, 38 of them female (26%). In all, 28% of the MSc (etc.) students were female.

Table 17. Summary of chemistry (IPICS), mathematics (IPMS) and physics (IPPS) graduates 2014. Sandwich type training (Sandw.) or Local training is indicated, and gender of graduates.

The graduations are listed countrywise. For each county, students reported by chemistry groups and networks ar given first, followed by those reported for mathematics and physics. The entries are given essentially as submitted to ISP. “Sandwich” (Sandw.) theses are written by student with intermittent visits to a collaborating supervisor in another country. “Local“ theses are by students being trained at the home university. (F = female; M= male).
