Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme 2027 2028 (Fully Funded)

The Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme is a fully funded award for doctoral study in Hong Kong. It funds new full time PhD students at government funded universities. Anyone from any country can apply. Many applicants also compare it with other fully funded routes. For example, some look at the Singapore International Graduate Award, another major PhD option in Asia.

First, scholars get a large yearly stipend. Also, they get a travel allowance. Plus, no fee applies to apply. In short, the award covers this.

This award suits strong candidates with real research ability, not grades alone. Meanwhile, students who want funding tied to a single named school instead may prefer the Schwarzman Scholars program. That option funds a one year Master’s in mainland China.
