KAUST Scholarship 2027

About this scholarship

The KAUST Scholarship is a fully funded graduate scholarship for international students pursuing Master's, MS/PhD, and PhD study in science and engineering at KAUST in Saudi Arabia.

The KAUST Scholarship is offered by King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST), a research-intensive graduate university in Saudi Arabia. It supports outstanding students seeking advanced study in science, engineering, and related quantitative fields through Master's, MS/PhD, and PhD programmes.

This scholarship is generally considered fully funded. Based on available postings, it covers full tuition fees and also provides a monthly stipend, free on-campus accommodation, health insurance, and support for travel and relocation. Some postings also note visa support and no application fee. The exact stipend level can vary by programme and academic level.

KAUST welcomes applicants from around the world. To apply, candidates typically need an appropriate prior degree in a field relevant to their intended programme: a bachelor's degree for master's study and a master's degree for PhD study. Strong academic performance is expected, and English-language proficiency is required. The scholarship is linked to admission, so students usually apply for an eligible KAUST graduate programme and are considered as part of the university's admissions process.

Study takes place at KAUST's campus in Saudi Arabia. The university is especially known for STEM and research-driven disciplines such as computer science, engineering, chemistry, physics, mathematics, environmental science, earth science, and related areas. Prospective applicants should review programme-specific requirements carefully and submit their application through KAUST's official graduate admissions portal.
