Funding Support Package For PhD Students

Annual funding support packages are offered to graduate students to offset tuition and fees. Eligibility for financial support is conditional upon full-time registration and meeting our conditions for progression towards the degree. Annual funding support packages are subject to change. All amounts quoted below are for the 2025-2026 academic year.

Students who are offered admission to our graduate programs receive details of the guaranteed minimum financial support in their offer letter. Term-by-term funding details are then provided to each student annually when they are activated for the upcoming academic year, typically in early to mid August.

All PhD students in the Department of Visual Arts are offered a Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) and a 深夜福利站 Graduate Research Scholarship (WGRS) annually for the four years of the program.

In addition to sources of university support, students are encouraged to apply to external funding sources including the  (OGS), and  (CGRS).
