Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme

Overview

Established in 2009 by the Hong Kong Research Grants Council (RGC), the Hong Kong PhD Fellowship Scheme (HKPFS) aims at attracting the best and brightest students in the world to pursue their PhD programmes in Hong Kong's institutions.

Eligibility

Those who are seeking admission as new full time PhD students in Hong Kong institutions funded by the University Grants Committee (UGC), irrespective of their country of origin and ethnic background, should be eligible to apply. Applicants should demonstrate outstanding qualities of academic performance, research ability / potential, communication and interpersonal skills, and leadership abilities.

The Fellowship

The Fellowship provides a monthly stipend of HK$20,000 (approximately US$2,600) and a conference and research related travel allowance of HK$10,000 (approximately US$1,300) per year for the awardees for a period of three years. About 135 PhD Fellowships will be awarded each academic year1. For awardees who need more than three years to complete the PhD degree, additional support may be provided by the chosen institutions. For details, please contact the institutions concerned directly.

1 Academic year in Hong Kong normally starts in September.

Selection Panels

Shortlisted applications, subject to their areas of studies, will be reviewed by one of the two HKPF Selection Panels with experts in the relevant broad areas -- one for science, medicine, engineering and technology and another one for humanities, social science and business studies.


Selection Criteria

While the academic excellence is of prime consideration, the Selection Panels will take into account, but is not limited to, the four yardsticks below for the selection of candidates:

Academic excellence;
Research ability and potential;
Communication, and interpersonal skills; and
Leadership abilities.
Application Process

Applicants may choose up to two programmes in one or two institutions for PhD study in their HKPFS applications. They are also required to submit application(s) for PhD admission to the relevant institution(s) directly for their selected programme(s). Applicants are therefore required to fully comply with the admission requirements of their selected institutions and programmes. The HKPFS 2011/12 will call for applications in September 2010. Detailed arrangements for the application process will be announced later.

Katuni ya Leo..

Wanawake wote wangekua kama huyu basi ngono zembe kwishney!

Huyu ndiye aliyekua Loon.....

Wakati wasanii wetu wengi wa muziki wa kibongo wanachukua video kwenye nyumba,magari ama maeneo mazuri kwa ujumla hali iko tofauti kwa msanii Loon alipotembelea Bongo.Msanii huyo ameonekana katika Video yake kwa jina 'Distracted' akiwa bongo ambako mazingira aliyo chukulia video ni sambamba na hali halisi ya makazi ya walio wengi bongo/Tanzania.Zaidi angalia video hii hapa chini.

Hata hivyo msanii huyo ambaye sasa katoka kivingine kabisaaa kwa kuwaunga mkono Busta Rhyms,Napoleon,Akon,Ice Cube, na wengine wengi ambao wameukacha Ukisto na kua waislam.Kama Video ya pili inavyo onyesha hapa chini.

Si vibaya zote ni imani tu ili mradi kote wana amini Mungu yupo.Kwa upande mwingine mashabaki wanauliza kwa mtindo wa kutoa maoni hasa 'YOUTUBE' na kushangaa zile ndevu kama ndio kua na imani kali ama laa na wengine kushangaa mtu mweusi kuiga style za waarabu kwa kufuga ndevu kiasi kile kwani anatisha.Wakati huu Loon anasema yeye ni good boy na sio bad boy tena kama alivyokua under bad boy Records.Kazi kweli kweli.



Loon wa sasa ndio huyu
