Established in 2009 by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council (RGC), the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme (HKPFS) aims at attracting the best and brightest students from around the world to pursue doctoral studies in Hong Kong. Information about the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme is available at https://fytgs.hkust.edu.hk/scholarships/hong-kong-phd-fellowship-scheme.

As announced in the 2024 Policy Address, the Hong Kong Government has set up the Hong Kong Future Talents Scholarship Scheme for Advanced Studies (FTSS) to attract meritorious local students in pursuing further studies in areas of strategic priority for the development of Hong Kong. Local students admitted to our MA in Arts and Machine Creativity (AMC) program and MSc in Environmental Science and Management (EVSM) program are eligible to apply for a tuition waiver up to HK$100,000.
