Overview
For masters, I chose Universiteit Gent, Belgium because I had a strong motivation to work for the development of rural areas in India. This University offers one of the best rural development programs in the world. After completing my master's degree, I worked through different national and international development research organizations in India. That helped me to acquire some advanced skills in research and motivated me to pursue Ph.D. if I want to make my career in research. One day, I found a vacancy offered by Universität Kassel, Germany for a doctoral researcher on the effect of urbanization on the peri-urban area of Bengaluru city. This position attracted my attention to apply and by god's grace, they selected me for this position.
Scholarship
Yes, I got an Erasmus Mundus scholarship in masters during 2012-2014 which was 1000 euros per month. Erasmus Mundus scholarship was assumed to be applied along with the admission application form. In Ph.D., I am getting a monthly salary of around 1900 euros per month excluding taxes. I applied for a vacancy announced for a Doctoral Researcher by the Universität Kassel, Germany
