> from an internationally-recognised university in an appropriate topic
> (which includes but is not limited to information systems, management,
> or development); good English skills; and a relevant topic for study

> Candidates may choose to study a PhD, for which they will typically be
> based in Manchester during much of their study, other than a period of
> fieldwork in a developing country.  Those already in employment may
> choose the DBA route, taken over a four-or-five-year period and
> requiring roughly two two-week periods of intensive study/supervision
> per year in Manchester.  (Scholarships are not available for DBA
> study.)

> Selected candidates will join the Centre for Development Informatics,
> the largest academic group working on issues of ICTs in developing
> countries (http://www.cdi.manchester.ac.uk).  CDI will consider any
> topic related to development informatics although we have particular
> priorities at present for work on: m-finance; ICTs and
> small/micro-enterprise; gender implications of ICTs; IS methodologies
> in developing countries; e-government; ICTs and civil society
> organisations; ICT policy; ICT-based offshoring; ICT4D innovation; and
> "development 2.0".
