Hamad Bin Khalifa University Scholarship 2026

The Hamad Bin Khalifa University Scholarship is a university-funded financial support scheme for students admitted to degree programmes at Hamad Bin Khalifa University (HBKU) in Qatar. The scholarship is primarily associated with graduate study and is designed to attract high-achieving students from Qatar and around the world to study at one of the country’s leading research-focused universities.

Support under this programme can vary by college, degree level, and applicant profile, but awards commonly include tuition coverage and may also provide a monthly stipend, accommodation or housing support, and other benefits such as support for books or related academic costs. Because scholarship terms may differ between programmes, applicants should review the specific funding information attached to their intended degree.

The scholarship is generally available to students applying for eligible Master’s and PhD programmes at HBKU. Applicants are usually expected to meet the university’s admission standards, hold strong academic records, and satisfy any programme-specific requirements such as prerequisite qualifications, references, statement of purpose, and proof of English proficiency where required.

HBKU hosts its programmes in Qatar, and applicants typically apply for admission through the university’s official admissions process. Scholarship consideration is often linked to the admissions application rather than requiring a completely separate external application, though procedures can vary by programme and cycle. Prospective students should prepare their academic documents carefully and consult the official admissions and scholarship pages for the most current details on eligibility, funding coverage, and timelines.
