UWA will provide a scholarship for tuition fees and health insurance for selected students and the CSC will consider the applications of these students for a living allowance as prescribed from time to time by the Chinese Government, a return airfare to Australia by the most economical route, and visa application fees.
Only applicants intending to enrol in a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program are eligible. If the selected Chinese students successfully complete the requirements of the program, they will be conferred with a Doctor of Philosophy degree by UWA.

Applicants should be intending to pursue a PhD in one of the priority academic areas identified by CSC or one of those identified by UWA.

The CSC scholarship provides a living allowance for four years. UWA will provide a supplementary or Top-Up scholarship to bring the total combined living allowance up to approximately the current base scholarship rate ($26,000 per annum tax-free in 2011)
If a candidate has a conditional UWA offer of enrolment subject to the CSC award but CSC award is not forthcoming, the candidate may still enrol but will be required to pay all costs as a full-fee paying student.
