About the Doha Institute Tamim Scholarship
The Doha Institute for Graduate Studies offers the Tamim Scholarship to outstanding students from Qatar and abroad who are admitted to eligible master’s programs. Pakistani applicants compete as international students.
The scholarship is not a separate public form at the initial admission stage. After admission decisions are issued, the institute contacts admitted students and invites eligible candidates to apply for scholarship consideration.
Financial Benefits
For international master’s students, the official scholarship page lists:
- 100% tuition waiver.
- Student housing.
- Monthly stipend.
- Health insurance.
The institute does not publish the stipend amount on the main scholarship page. Applicants should not rely on unofficial monthly figures. Award terms are confirmed directly to successful candidates.
Program and Scholarship Structure
Applicants first choose and apply to an eligible Doha Institute master’s program. Admission and scholarship review are related but separate stages. Receiving admission does not automatically guarantee scholarship funding.
The scholarship cannot be combined with another scholarship without permission. Continuation depends on maintaining the required academic standing. Executive master’s programs, diplomas and specialized certificate programs are not covered by this master’s scholarship.
