These government scholarships encourage international exchange and promote collaboration between Switzerland and more than 180 countries. They are awarded by the Federal Commission for Scholarships for Foreign Students (CFBE).

Research fellowships at universities are awarded to candidates for a doctorate abroad who are doing a research internship in Switzerland (Research Fellowships), to candidates for a doctorate in Switzerland (PhD Scholarships) or for postdoctoral research in Switzerland (Postdoctoral Scholarships).
