RGC — Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme
Read the Research Grants Council’s own overview of the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme: what it funds, the universities you can hold it at, and how applications are judged.
Hong Kong institution, statutory body or programme published for Hong Kong; individual services, eligibility and dates must be checked.
Recommended next action
Note the award period and the two selection panels, then open the RGC application page for this round’s deadline before you plan around any figure.
Access and scope
The scheme page is free to read. This is not confirmation that any given round is currently open.
What to check at source
The page’s award text covers more than one academic year and older figures remain in the page source, so treat any number as page-stated, not verified. No deadline is taken from this page — round dates must be confirmed on the RGC application page. The page says applicants should demonstrate outstanding qualities; nothing here states or implies admission.
