Universiti Sains Malaysia Graduate Scholarship 2027

The Universiti Sains Malaysia Graduate Scholarship provides tuition-fee funding for new full-time research students at USM for the first and second semesters. It is available to international applicants for research-mode PhD study and to Malaysian applicants for research-mode master’s or PhD programmes. Renewal depends on satisfactory research progress and publication activity, and funding is tied to admission and progression rather than a stipend.

Tuition-fee funding for up to two semesters; opportunity to work with a USM supervisor and research group; potential extension upon progress.

International applicants may apply for research-mode PhD; Malaysian applicants may apply for research-mode master’s or PhD programmes; applicants must have an admission offer from USM and not be registered as full-time students at USM when applying.

Must have a full USM admission offer and submit the scholarship application via the provided form; renewal requires manuscript submission and progress review.
