What We Do
The Grant serves to support a new generation of scholars to conduct significant research that will broaden and deepen our understanding of traditional Chinese art.
Whom We Support
The Grant supports outstanding final-year PhD candidates whose dissertation topic is pertinent to traditional Chinese art. Grant awardees are expected to engage in full-time thesis writing and complete their dissertation within the grant period. The maximum grant period is 12 months.
The Grant accepts applications on a rolling basis throughout the 2022 pilot year. The grant duration and amount are decided on a case-by-case basis by the selection panel based on the topic and proposed timeline of a dissertation project (priority will be given to those with financial need).
What We Cover
The Grant covers the tuition fees and living expenses of final-year PhD studies.
