0 Shares

University of Chinese Academy of Sciences Scholarships are currently accepting applications for the 2022/2023 academic session.

The UCAS Scholarship for International Students was established by the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (UCAS) to support young talents from around the world who wish to pursue Master’s or Doctoral degrees, attend courses, conduct research, or pay academic visits at UCAS faculties/CAS institutes.

International graduate students presently enrolled at foreign institutions are also encouraged to apply for combined programs.

There are two types of scholarships available: full scholarships and half scholarships. The full scholarship includes tuition, a monthly stipend, basic housing, and medical insurance, while the partial scholarship just pays a portion of the full’s expenses.

Since 2016, the scholarship has mostly supported master and doctorate students.
