Graduate Scholarships With Publication Conditions in Korea
These graduate scholarship rules explicitly connect the award to publication, journal authorship or a thesis/publication condition. Requirements differ by degree and field and can apply at selection, during study or before completion. A non-thesis programme label alone is not a publication condition, and general research participation is excluded.
6 programmes from the published database. Application status as of 2026-10-18 (KST); source review dates are recorded individually. Past calls remain labeled by their year and deadline. A policy without dates is not treated as an open call.
