The Scheme aims to attract top international students to pursue PhD studies in Hong Kong’s world-class research universities. The fellowship provides a monthly stipend of HK$20,000 (approx. US$2,600) and a conference and research-related travel allowance of HK$10,000 (approx. US$1,300) per year for a period of three years. More than 230 fellowships will be awarded for PhD studies commencing in the 2018/19 academic year. The deadline for initial application is 1 December 2017.
