Doha Institute for Graduate Studies is a recognized regional centre for advanced study in the social sciences and the humanities. Prospective students often check the Institute’s Admissions Scholarships page for funding opportunities and application timelines.

As of the Institute’s current admissions page, there are no active scholarships posted for doctoral or master’s programs — but the page does list important application timing for upcoming intakes. The site shows that applications open on 1 September 2025, the application deadline is 15 January 2026, and the academic year begins in August 2026. Applicants should treat these date markers as planning anchors and confirm directly with the Institute for any scholarship updates or program-specific funding announcements.

If you’re planning to apply to the Doha Institute, use the following approach:

• Monitor the Institute’s official admissions pages for updates and funding announcements.
• Prepare application documents early (CV, transcripts, letters of recommendation, research proposal).
• Contact the Admissions Office or individual departments to ask about departmental fellowships or external funding.
• Explore external scholarship sources (national government scholarships, regional foundations, research councils).

We’ll keep this page updated on FundsDigest with any changes to funding announcements and application windows for Doha Institute programs. If you’d like, we can also compile a list of external scholarship sources that commonly support students in the region.
