The Government of Indonesia has opened applications for the fully funded Kemitraan Negara Berkembang (KNB) Scholarship, offering Pakistani students the opportunity to pursue higher education in Indonesia. The scholarship is available for Bachelor’s, Master’s, and PhD programs at selected Indonesian universities and aims to strengthen educational cooperation while fostering long-term relationships with developing countries.
The KNB Scholarship covers all major expenses, including full tuition fees, a monthly living allowance, a one-time settlement allowance upon arrival, health insurance, study and research support, and round-trip airfare between Pakistan and Indonesia. This comprehensive funding allows students to focus fully on their academic programs without financial concerns.
Selected students are required to complete a one-year Indonesian language course before starting their degree programs, helping them adapt to daily life and participate effectively in lectures and academic activities. The scholarship supports a wide range of disciplines, including science, engineering, social sciences, humanities, and other fields, with study opportunities at reputable public and private universities known for high academic standards and research facilities.
Applicants must meet the academic requirements for their chosen degree level. Bachelor’s applicants should have completed secondary education, while Master’s and PhD applicants must hold relevant prior degrees. Candidates are also expected to demonstrate strong academic performance and fulfill language proficiency requirements as specified in the scholarship guidelines.
The application process is conducted online, requiring submission of academic documents, study plans, and other necessary information. Shortlisted candidates may undergo further evaluation before final selections are announced.
For Pakistani students, the KNB Scholarship offers a fully funded pathway to international education, cultural immersion, and personal development in one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic countries, providing valuable global exposure and academic growth.
