Aplication Prosedur

To apply for the NSS (PhD), please click here.

A*STAR accepts and processes applications throughout the year. However, priority will be
given to applications that reach us by 1st April for admission to an overseas university in Fall the
following year.

I am interested to do my PhD studies locally, under the AGS (Singapore), but my supervisor does not
have an existing collaboration with A*STAR. Can I still apply for the AGS (Singapore)?

The nominated supervisor has to be approved by the respective A*STAR Partnership University’s
Governing Boards. You may want to ask your proposed supervisor to check with their respective
universities or RI HR to enquire the process to be approved as an AGS Supervisor. In most cases, the
main and co-supervisors should hold at a minimum, the designation of Principal Investigator or Principal
Scientist at an A*STAR RI.

Should I apply for a scholarship after I have gotten a place at NUS/NTU?

AGS (Singapore) applicants are encouraged to apply for university admission concurrently with your
scholarship application
