Grant Description

On August 7, 2019, the Chinese Embassy in Montenegro held a ceremony for Montenegrin collegiate students awarded scholarships to study in China.

The scholarship amount and the number of recipients remain unknown; however, an article released by the Chinese Embassy in Montenegro states more than 70 Chinese government former and present recipients attended the ceremony. Scholarship recipients would study in China for one to two years. These scholarships can be used for either undergraduate or graduate level programs.

The Government of China has awarded yearly scholarships to approximately 63 qualified Montenegrin citizens since 2016 through Montenegro's Ministry of Education.

📋 Staff Comments

Although there aren’t official Donor/Recipient sources recording the scholarships, a report by the Centar Za Demokratsku Tranziciju mentions Chinese government scholarships awarded yearly (since 2016), noting it could include this project’s scholarships. If so, the Recipient should be coded as Montenegro’s Ministry of Education.
