SIU Training Scholarship

The Société Internationale d’Urologie provides two types of scholarships to young urologists (less than 10 years since obtaining M.D.).

- 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 from the developing world 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.
