Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps Scholarship

Tarim University is announcing its 2026 International Student “Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps” Scholarship for Master’s and PhD applicants. The opportunity is especially relevant for students interested in Agriculture, Life Sciences, Engineering, and related research areas. Programs are taught in English, making it suitable for international applicants seeking graduate study in China.

The scholarship package is strong and includes a full tuition fee waiver, free on-campus accommodation, medical insurance, and a monthly living allowance of 2500 RMB for PhD students and 2250 RMB for Master’s students. This makes it a fully funded option rather than a self-funded admission route.

Eligibility highlights include being an international student (Pakistani applicants are explicitly welcomed), applying to an English-taught Master’s or PhD program, and preparing the required application materials. The post lists the major documents: passport, highest degree certificate and transcripts, a 1000+ word study plan, CV, two recommendation letters, English proficiency proof (IELTS/TOEFL or medium certificate), medical examination form, police clearance certificate, passport-size photo, and a 2–3 minute self-introduction video.

Applicants are advised to contact potential supervisors before final submission to obtain informal acceptance. Tarim University has also provided a ZIP file of supervisor profiles to help applicants identify a suitable mentor. The official enrollment brochure for international students is available, and the application portal is linked in the post.

Deadline: before 2026-05-01. Interested candidates should review the brochure, shortlist a program, contact supervisors, and submit the online application with all required documents before the deadline.
