Background

Global PhD Fellowship (GPF) is a government-funded project and the biggest and most competitive fellowship for graduate students in Korea. Under this program, a few PhD students are identified every year, their research and publishing expenses funded by the government.

This project relates to one of the most prestigious universities in Korea, whose students were awarded a significant chunk of the fellowships under the GPF program. Enago has long been a preferred editing partner of the university in question. That and Enago’s past experience in handling GPF projects motivated the university to refer as many as 64 researchers to Enago for editing services.

Challenges

A large volume of work (64 manuscripts and approximately 250,000 words), that was due within very tight deadlines, including edits that were requested and delivered on the very last day of submission.
Ensuring top-notch quality on manuscripts that were submitted under the most high profile and sought after fellowship in the country.
