The Doha Institute for Graduate Studies offers scholarships to academically qualified students from Qatar and abroad who wish to pursue graduate studies in Doha.
Two main scholarship schemes are available:
Tamim Scholarship — a merit-based scholarship awarded to outstanding students. It covers full tuition fees. International students coming from outside Qatar may also receive free accommodation in the Institute's dormitories, a monthly stipend, health insurance and travel support.
Sanad Scholarship — a need-based scholarship available to Qatari citizens, residents of Qatar and international students. Funding may cover between 10% and 100% of programme fees depending on financial need. International students from outside Qatar may receive full tuition coverage, free accommodation, a monthly stipend, health insurance and travel support.
Applicants must first apply and be admitted to an eligible programme at the Doha Institute. Eligible admitted students are then invited to submit a separate scholarship application with the required supporting documents.
Scholarships cannot normally be combined with other funding, and recipients must maintain good academic standing. Executive Master's programmes, diploma programmes and specialised certificates are not eligible for these scholarships.
