China Scholarship Council Projects
Queen Mary University of London has partnered with the China Scholarship Council (CSC) to offer a joint scholarship programme to enable Chinese students to study for a PhD programme at Queen Mary. Under the scheme, Queen Mary will provide scholarships to cover all tuition fees, whilst the CSC will provide living expenses for 4 years and one return flight ticket to successful applicants.
Applications for the China Scholarship Council (CSC) for the 2026-2027 academic year are now open. The deadline for applications to Queen Mary is 28th January 2026 16:00 GMT.

For visiting/associate students, who are coming to Queen Mary for a short amount of time, as part of your current PhD, please apply via this page https://www.qmul.ac.uk/postgraduate/associate/. Please note: visiting/associate students should apply for the CSC through the personal application channel, not via the QMUL–CSC Joint Programme. The QMUL–CSC Joint Programme is for full-time QMUL PhD students only.
