Let's consider the Tamasek Scholarship. It's a big deal for Singaporeans in the STEM fields—Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Started in June 2024 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Singapore, the scholarship is looking for people with passion, new ideas, and the mojo to push the boundaries in STEM.
The scholarship covers the full cost of education, tuition, a living allowance, and even accommodation and flights. It's not available for international students but only for Singaporean students. If you want a full scholarship for your PhD program, try Rennier University if you're not a Singaporean.
