it's actually 24 months

It actually spans 24 months inclusive of a 6-month internship period. It's quite an exciting programme as you'll get acquainted with other African graduates and lecturers (mostly professors) from different countries. Wishing every applicant the best of luck.

I want to wish you guys all the very best as you wait for the outcome of this exercise...do keep us updated with how you fared.
