The Resident Graduate Scholarship (RGS) Programme was launched in September 2002
to advance bilateral collaboration between Hong Kong Baptist
University and participating member institutions. The programme
is conceived with a reciprocal vision to bring students of
participating universities to Hong Kong, under the co-supervision
of HKBU faculty and vice versa. Beginning January 2004, the scope of the Programme has expanded. When resources are available,
applications from outside of the LEWI consertium institutions will be assessed
on a case-by-case basis.
By January 2009, LEWI has
sponsored 55 research students from Mainland China and overseas
member universities.
Value
HK$6,000 (about
US$770) to be awarded by the
David C. Lam Institute for East-West Studies; research facilities
at the discretion of the host institution.

Five months from September to January next year (spring semester) or February to June (Fall Semester).

Single occupancy: HK$7,200 per room for 30 consecutive nights.
Note:
Successful applicants will have to pay a caution money of HK$1,000 (refundable) and the room rental for 5 full months to the NTT International House before they arrive in Hong Kong.

expected to participate in the activities of the academic
community in Hong Kong in general and those of the University
in particular.
Provision of Office & Facilities
Depending on availability, visiting scholars will be given the use of either
a standard one-person office or desk space in a research
office. Subject to availability, shared use of PCs, access
to the library and the Internet, and reception service may
be offered.

Overseas scholars wishing to pursue research projects in East-West studies in
Hong Kong are welcome to apply. Application should include
a 3-5 page description of the research project, proposed
