If you are an international student from Vietnam applying for a PhD at UTS, you may be eligible for this scholarship
\ UTS has partnered with the Ministry of Education and Training (MoET) in Vietnam to provide PhD scholarships under the Project 89 - a national initiative to develop Vietnam's next generation of researchers and academics. Under the UTS-MOET partnership, UTS will provide the Project 89 nominees a top-up scholarship for 3.5 years to support the full tuition fee and a living stipend at the UTS base stipend rate.
Value and duration
This Vietnam government scholarship (Project 89) covers for a maximum of 3 years and 6 months.
The Vietnam government provides a scholarship fund:
- a tuition fee scholarship of up to $25,000 USD per academic year (2025 rate)
- a stipend scholarship of $1,120 USD per month (2025 rate)
- an international return airfare and travel allowances
- Overseas Student Health Cover (OSHC) for the time spent in Australia (up to $1,000 USD per year)
