Funding and Scholarship

  • All graduate students in the Department of Philosophy receive a full tuition waiver (i.e. there are no tuition costs), private health insurance, monthly stipend and discounted campus housing (25% for MA students and 50% for PhD students), conditional upon ongoing success in the program.
  • Up to five students each year will be eligible to go on exchange to the School of Philosophy at Australian National University (pandemic permitting). The exchange is fully funded by the university. [Photos]
  • In addition to the above, PhD students receive monthly meal tickets.
  • Our graduate students are also eligible for funding from TÜBİTAK (e.g. BİBEB). Bilkent’s funding package remains unaltered (i.e. not reduced) if a student is simultaneously receiving a TÜBİTAK scholarship. 
  • Admission to the MA and PhD programs is highly competitive.
