SIU Training Scholarship

The Société Internationale d’Urologie offers two types of training scholarships. Urologists from the developing world who have earned their M.D. degree in the last 10 years are eligible to apply.

- The first scholarship allows the scholar to train in an SIU-Accredited Training Centre in the candidate’s geographical area.

- The second scholarship grants the visiting scholar an observational role in an SIU-Accredited Training Center.

Both programmes offer scholarships for surgeons for a 3- or 6-month period in an FSIU-recognized institute, with US$ 5,000 for a 6-month period and US$ 2,500 for a 3-month period.
