I intend to pursue a fully funded, employment-based PhD program in Public Administration, Governance, Political Science, or Diplomacy in a Nordic country (Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Finland, or Iceland), with a planned start date no later than March 2027.

My goal is to enroll in a doctoral program that operates under the Nordic model, where PhD candidates are employed as research fellows and receive full financial support, including salary and academic benefits. I am particularly interested in research areas related to public sector governance, institutional development, policy implementation, and diplomatic studies.

Over the coming months, I plan to prepare a strong research proposal, identify potential supervisors, and apply to advertised doctoral positions during the 2026 recruitment cycle.
