If successful, the PhD degree will be awarded by Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands.<br /><br />Project description<br /><br />The project focuses on the semi-arid areas of sub-Saharan Africa, where 95% of the total agricultural land is used for rainfed agriculture, water availability is scarce and highly variable, and average yields often remain below 1 ton per ha. The resilience of the farming systems is low as well, due the large (and increasing) variability of the hydro-climatic conditions and a limited capacity to adapt. As a result, crop failure is the norm. Water availability is a key entry point to improve crop productivity in these regions (Falkenmark and Rockström, 2004).<br /><br />The research and outreach programme of “Smallholder systems innovations in integrated watershed management” (SSI-1, 2004-2008) thus focused on the identification and application of innovative agricultural water management practices that offer opportunities to increase both food security and safeguard environmental integrity. The impact of these innovations on food production and ecosystems has been studied at field and watershed scale at sites in the Thukela river basin in South Africa and the Pangani river basin in Tanzania.<br /><br />There is a growing awareness that a real transformation of the countryside will only be possible if innovative soil and water technologies and land and water management practices are adopted, and locally adapted, at a large scale and in combination with increased fertilizer use (see e.g. Rijsberman, 2004; Polak, 2005; Rockström et al., 2007). Only then will rural areas be able to transform from their current position of marginalization and poverty to a motor of socio-economic development (Prahalad, 2004).<br /><br />Since the conditions under which such a transformation may occur, as well as the potential impacts at different scales, are still ill-understood, a new project will focus on the socio-economic and bio-physical conditions and impacts of upscaling these innovations. This new project (SSI-2, 2008-2012) will take note of some new drivers that influence the opportunities for agricultural innovation and rural socio-economic transformation: increasing food prices, increased access to information in the rural countryside, climate change impacts, and the limited access of farmers to energy sources in the face of an increasing global demand for biofuels (e.g., de Wit and Stankiewics, 2006; Uhlenbrook, 2007). The two PhD research projects form part of the broader SSI-2 programme.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br /><br /><p> <b>PhD Project 1: </b><b>Water processes at different spatial scales</b> </p> <p> This research theme addresses the hydrological implications for up-scaling land and water system innovations. The objective is to gain better understanding of the interactions between processes linking local and larger scales. </p> <p> The analysis focuses on how the dominant hydrological processes may change at different spatial scales. The research builds on the understanding of the hydrological processes gained during SSI-1, with a stronger emphasis on groundwater-surface water interactions and potential implications of/for land management changes. </p> <p> It is hypothesised that surface-groundwater interactions are critical to the impacts of water system innovations, and that it impacts vary with scale and different physiographic characteristics. </p> <p> This hypothesis will be verified in the field and the results used for predictive modelling to determine impacts of up-scaled use of WSIs on water quantity and quality for downstream users under different scenarios. The surface-groundwater interactions (including wetlands) are also crucial for the hydrological variability and water resources availability at different scales and, consequently, for the provision of ecosystem services. </p> <p> </p> <p> <b>Research question: </b>What are the hydrological impacts of small scale farming activities, incl. water system innovations, across different scales? Particular attention will be paid to different types of rainwater harvesting, supplementary irrigation and full scale irrigation. </p> <p> </p> <p> <b>Methodology: </b>Understanding the hydrological impacts of small scale farming activities across different scales, requires the understanding of the hydrological processes at these scales. This research will take up the small scale hydrological understanding (project 3.1) and investigate the large scale (500-5,000-45,000 km2) hydrological processes through the use of remote sensing data combined with field observations (incl. hydro-chemical and tracers studies). Of particular interest is the groundwater surface water interaction (incl. generation of wetlands) and the impact of this on the downstream water availability (PBWO, 2006). A process-based distributed hydrological model will be developed to investigate different scenarios of uptake and extent of the small scale farming activities. </p> <p> </p> <p>This study will be supervised by Prof. Dr. Stefan Uhlenbrook, Dr. Jan Willem Foppen, Dr Shreedhar Maskey (UNESCO-IHE), Dr. T.A. Kimaro (UDSM). </p> <p> </p> <p> <b>The following applies to the position:</b> </p> <ul><li>All topics will be carried out in a so-called sandwich construction with different phases at UNESCO-IHE in the Netherlands and field research in Tanzania (with regular contacts with Tanzanian and Dutch supervisors).</li><li>PhD positions are funded with a fellowship for which NUFFIC regulations apply. </li><li>Starting date: April 1, 2009 for 4 years.</li><li>Qualifications: M.Sc. degree (average mark: 80% or above) in a discipline relevant to the topic, e.g. environmental engineering, socio-economics of the water sector, hydrology and water resources.</li><li>The applicants must demonstrate a strong interest and experience in conducting interdisciplinary research.</li><li>The applicant should be willing to co-operated with other researchers in the SSI-2 programme</li><li>The applicants should be willing to co-supervise MSc research projects.</li><li>The applicants must be fluent in English. </li><li>Preferred country of citizenship of the applicants is Tanzania.</li><li>Age: 40 years and below.</li><li>Work experience in relevant fields of studies is desirable.</li></ul> <p> The project it is jointly led by Dr. T.A.

Our graduates acquire the quantitative tools and research skills to work as economists in business, finance, government, and academia.<br /><br />The basic graduate offering at CEMFI is its highly prestigious Master in Economics and Finance. Unlike many Master programs in the US and elsewhere, ours is self-contained and offers a well respected qualification.<br /><br />CEMFI grants a subset of its Master students exemptions from the tuition fee and/or scholarships for living expenses amounting up to EUR 10,000 per year. They are granted according to academic merit. In previousyears, the Fundación Carolina, in cooperation with the Fundación BBVA, has endowed several scholarships for Latin American students of the Master. If new grants are endowed, they will be announced on CEMFI’s web page.<br /><span class="fullpost"><br />An important distinguishing feature of our Master is that it lasts for two years, the second being essential for shaping the skills of our graduates. The first year consists of basic graduate coursework and some optional subjects. The second year includes specialized courses and research training through a Master thesis. Our ratio of students to faculty is between four and five. Thus we can devote a lot of attention to each student. This is particularly important for the Master thesis, where the faculty provides guidance to a unique degree.<br /><br />Members of CEMFI’s faculty publish in top journals and are research leaders in their fields. They are also editors of prestigious journals and are key players at leading learned societies such as the European Economic Association and the Econometric Society.<br /><br />Our Master students get very good jobs as economists. For example, in positions dealing with portfolio and risk management, macroeconomic forecasting, policy evaluation, or microeconomic consultancy. CEMFI has been building a reputation for more than 20 years and a degree from<br />CEMFI provides a strong signal of quality, regularly confirmed by the market. Moreover, we run an experienced and efficient job placement service.<br /><br />Students interested in furthering their research training, either because they aim for a professional career with a stronger research content or because they aim for an academic position, will continue to develop their research skills for another three years and complete the<br />PhD program. Graduates from CEMFI’s PhD program have published papers from their dissertation in top journals and we have an excellent record in the PhD job market.<br /><br />Admission to the PhD program at CEMFI is through the Master. All students admitted to the PhD program obtain a scholarship, either from an external source or from CEMFI.

The chosen<br />applicants will join 2,700 other Wesleyan undergraduates from<br />throughout the United States and nearly 50 countries for study with an<br />outstanding teaching and research faculty in the sciences and<br />mathematics, the arts, the humanities, and the social and behavioral<br />sciences.<br />This program is made possible by Wesleyan University<br />and the Freeman Foundation, which aims to improve understanding and to<br />strengthen ties between the United States and the countries and regions<br />of the Pacific Rim.<br />Entry into the Wesleyan Freeman Asian<br />Scholarship Program is highly competitive: only two students will be<br />selected annually from each country or region. The scholarship covers<br />costs for tuition, room, and board for four years, and one-time<br />transportation to and from the United States.<br />Wesleyan University<br />is located in Middletown, Connecticut, halfway between New York and<br />Boston in the historic and colorful New England region of the<br />northeastern United States. It is a private, nonsectarian, liberal arts<br />and sciences institution founded in 1831. A number of early Wesleyan<br />graduates were influential educators and ministers in Asian countries,<br />and the modern Wesleyan has formal ties to several prominent<br />universities in Asia. The campus is home to a diverse population of<br />2,700 undergraduate students, equally divided between men and women,<br />approximately 28 percent of whom are of African, Asian, or Hispanic<br />descent, and nearly 160 students from foreign countries.<br />Approximately<br />190 graduate students, a number of whom are from Asian countries, are<br />pursuing advanced degrees, principally in the sciences, mathematics,<br />and music.<br />APPLICATION<br />Interested students also must submit a<br />written application that includes background information, two essays, a<br />secondary school/junior college transcript, recommendations from two<br />teachers and one counselor, a peer reference, and results of any<br />standardized national examinations administered during the secondary<br />school/junior college years. Officials from Wesleyan and the Freeman<br />Foundation will travel to Asia and conduct interviews of finalists in<br />their home countries in February or March. All application materials<br />are to be postmarked no later than January 1. (For students in the<br />Philippines, we recommend mailing your application earlier or using a<br />courier service.)

A key aim is that graduate students will gain insight<br />into both biomedical and clinical research, which will contribute to<br />the establishment of a translational research environment.<br /><br />Within this framework 2 PhD studentships are available at the Center for Oral Biology, to investigate;<br />Nerve-target interactions in teeth and bone. Neural growth factors and mineralization.<br /><br />Project 1: Nerve growth factors and mineralization<br />This project will test the hypothesis that neurotrophic factors, in<br />addition to their roles in innervation, influence mineralization during<br />dentinogenesis and osteogenesis. If so, malfunctions associated with<br />these factors could cause disturbances both in sensory nerve functions<br />and in hard tissue formation<br /><br />Project 2: Cellular and biomolecular interactions of osteoadherin with neurotrophic factors<br />Mineralizing tissue cells are reported to synthesize and secrete<br />neurotrophic factors, and it has been hypothesized that in addition to<br />their role in neural development, these factors may influence hard<br />tissue formation. Candidate molecules for such an interaction include<br />the small leucine-rich family of proteoglycans (SLRPs), which are<br />recognized as not only having a part to play in maintaining shape and<br />providing biomechanical strength to organs and tissues, but also<br />exhibit direct and indirect cell signaling properties. In turn this can<br />affect cell recruitment, proliferation, migration and differentiation.<br />This project will investigate in detail the cellular and biomolecular<br />interactions of nerve growth factors with the only recognized hard<br />tissue-specific SLRP reported to date, osteoadherin (OSAD).<br />For more detailed information on the projects www.ki.se/odont<br />Contact:<br />Professor Kaj Fried<br />+46 8 524 878 53<br /><a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:Kaj.Fried%40ki.se" target="_blank" href="mailto:Kaj.Fried%40ki.se">Kaj.Fried@ki. se</a><br />Dr Rachael Sugars<br />+ 46 8 746 02 35<br /><a rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:Rachael.Sugars%40ki.se" target="_blank" href="mailto:Rachael.Sugars%40ki.se">Rachael.Sugars@ ki.se</a><br />Last date of application: 15th December 2008Post Beasiswahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07194761186027461501noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9191881122240824821.post-66422165840049564292008-11-10T23:58:00.000+07:002008-11-12T00:00:04.355+07:00FULBRIGHT MASTER’S DEGREE PROGRAMPreference will be given to applicants who serve as faculty members of state and private institutions of higher education in Indonesia.
