Provider
The Sirindhorn International Institute of Technology (SIIT), the international engineering school of Thammasat University in Thailand, offers a fully funded scholarship for non-Thai international students entering a Master's or Doctoral programme. The award covers tuition and educational support fees, thesis support, round-trip airfare, visa fees, and comprehensive health and accident insurance, plus a monthly living allowance of 10,000 Thai Baht (about 280 USD per month, est.). Eligible fields span chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer engineering, digital engineering, electrical engineering, engineering management, industrial engineering, management technology, and mechanical engineering. To qualify you must not hold Thai nationality, must show strong English proficiency, provide two recommendation letters, meet SIIT's graduate admission requirements, and be in good health and conduct. Applications are made through SIIT's official website by completing the online form and uploading the required documents; a selection committee then reviews all applications over several weeks before sending offer letters. There are 3 main intake-linked deadlines each year, and for the 2026/2027 cycle the main Master's/PhD deadline is around 30 September 2026 (est.) for a January 2027 start, with an earlier round around 15 March 2026 (est.) for a September 2026 start. Because amounts, eligible programmes, and the exact closing dates are set each year, confirm the current figures and deadline on the official SIIT page before you apply.
