Important notes:
1. Baltic
students must keep BOVA deadline for applications despite NOVA deadlines can be
later than February 20, 2007.
2. Application procedure is a little
changed since September 2006 because BOVA secretariat takes a responsibility
for compiling an application to NordForsk.
Application procedure for Baltic students
Following new stage of agreement with NordForsk for applications of Baltic
PhD students to NOVA PhD courses new application procedure was prepared since September 2006.
You should apply by following steps (updated in August 2006):
1. Evaluate, how the course you are willing to apply can be relevant to
your research topic.
2. Check on the NOVA website, whether the specific course has its
particular registration form/procedure. Fill in such form and send it to
the relevant person as indicated on the website and a copy to local BOVA
coordinator (EPMU, LLU, LZUU, LVA) and BOVA secretariat ([email protected]). Apply by email
message if there is no application form for a certain course. In both cases you
should also attach a CV and note that compiled list of Baltic applicants will
be provided from BOVA secretariat.
Curriculum Vitae. We advice you to use a CV form downloaded from this
page below. Students should reflect very clearly how the course fits their
research or PhD thesis topic at the appropriate CV sections.
Download: click here to download a CV form.
3. Fill "Confirmation by student that you will attend the
course" and "Confirmation by the supervisor that the course is
approved by the research training authorities in the home country of the
candidate". Submit these documents to the BOVA secretariat ([email protected]) and a copy to BOVA coordinator at
your home university. The template of application could be downloaded from this
page below and should be filled and printed on the official form with logo
of student�s home faculty or university. It is enough to send these papers by
email to secretariat but signed hardcopies must be available upon
request at your home university at any time until final report is submitted.
Typically, BOVA coordinators are responsible for keeping these documents.

secretariat one full week before the NordForsk deadline. The template of
list could be downloaded from this page below.
