At least four scholarships are available: Two to UK nationals to study a postgraduate course in film, television or games in Hong Kong. Each scholarship will provide up to £10,000 towards one year’s course fees, a £10,000 bursary for living expenses, the support of an industry mentor, and free access to BAFTA events.
Applications are now open on the Hong Kong Scholarships application page, where details of eligible courses can also be found. A further two scholarships will be available for permanent residents of Hong Kong to study at an industry-recognised UK institution.
BAFTA’s scholarship programmes are part of their charitable activity to support talented people at all stages of their career in film, television and games. As well as their UK BAFTA Scholarship programme, (which includes the Prince William Scholarships in Film, Television and Games) and Hong Kong scholarships, BAFTA Los Angeles has an active Scholarship Program offering financial support and mentorship to UK students studying in the US; and the BAFTA New York Media Scholarship Program supports undergraduate and graduate students pursuing media studies at public institutions located within the New York City area.
If you have any questions about the BAFTA Scholarship programme in Hong Kong, go to the BAFTA website, or email scholarships@bafta.org
