About this scholarship

The ANSO Scholarship for Young Talents supports international graduate students pursuing science and technology study in China through the University of Science and Technology of China, the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences, and institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The official ANSO page states that the scholarship launched in 2019 to train young scientists worldwide and that around 500 scholarships are awarded annually, including up to 200 master's students and 300 doctoral students. The award is recorded as full funding because ANSO describes the programme as a scholarship package funded by CAS and states that awardees are entitled to scholarship benefits during the award period, though amount_value is null because official benefit values differ by degree level and are not one annual USD amount. Eligible applicants must not hold Chinese citizenship, must meet USTC or UCAS international admission criteria, must be proficient in English or Chinese, and must satisfy age limits: born after January 1, 1996 for master's applicants and after January 1, 1991 for PhD applicants.

  • Apply for an eligible master's or doctoral programme at USTC, UCAS, or a CAS institute
  • Meet international admission criteria for the chosen host university
  • Be proficient in English or Chinese
  • Meet the age limit for master's or PhD applicants in the call
  • Not take up other assignments during the scholarship period
  • Follow centralized training and admission conditions if selected
