The YRF programs have two streams, Qualitative and Quantitative. To gain better understanding of each stream, please refer to their respective pages below.
Watch the video to hear from the graduates of YRF program.
The four (4) month long fellowship program has three key components:
Training on applied research methods
Hands-on experience of different components of social science research
Mentoring from senior researchers on social science research
Participants will have the designation of Trainee Research Associate (TRA) during the fellowship period. The position demands full-time commitment, hence TRAs will not be able to hold another occupation during this period. TRAs will receive a certificate after the successful completion of the fellowship. BIGD will also offer the most suitable participants the opportunity to join as Research Associate. In addition, participants will be able to seek letters of recommendation from the trainers and mentors when they pursue other professional opportunities or higher studies.
We are looking for people who are hungry to learn and improve, determined to work hard and not give up, and have the ambition to excel and build an impactful knowledge institute. Keep your eye out for our next call for applications!
