The Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme 2027 supports outstanding new PhD students at eight universities in Hong Kong. It offers a strong annual stipend and travel support. This award suits top applicants from any country. Check the HKUST Future Leaders Award for a different need based option in the same city.

First, awardees receive an annual stipend of about HK$344,400. Also, they get a conference and research travel allowance of HK$14,400 each year. Plus, many universities add tuition waivers and extra cash awards. Notably, funding lasts up to three years. In short, the award covers this.

Strong academic applicants ready for full time PhD research can apply. Notably, this differs from the Nanyang Presidents Graduate Scholarship which is based in Singapore. However, both target high potential researchers.
