Opportunity Description

The Islamic Development Bank (IsDB) has been eager to concentrate on human capital development in addition to its mainstream development financing activities since its founding, understanding the value of skilled human resources for societal growth and sustainable development.


Under the name Scholarship Program for Muslim Communities (SPMC), IsDB introduced its undergraduate scholarship program (SP) in 1983 in response to the urgent need to enhance the human resources of the Muslim communities residing in non-Member Countries (non-MCs).


In order to strengthen the scientific, technological, and research capabilities of institutions in Member Countries (MCs), IsDB decided to establish the Merit Scholarship Program (MSP) for Ph.D. studies and post-doctoral research in applied science and high technology. The program was launched in 1992 and capitalizes on the experience of ten years of the SPMC. Afterwards, as it became apparent that 20 of the Least Developed Member Countries (LDMCs) could not profit from the latter, the Master of Science Scholarship Program (M.Sc.) was introduced in 1998 as a nourishment program for the MSP.


A full pillar of the IsDB’s Realigned Strategy 2023–2025 is devoted to the promotion of inclusive and comprehensive human capital development. Through capacity-development activities, such as scholarship programs, IsDB hopes to assist Muslim communities in non-MCs and MCs in addressing these issues. It plays a significant role in the IsDB’s initiatives to support shared prosperity and economic development by fostering the worldwide development of human capital via educational investment.
