Pakistan Seeks 10,000 PhD Scholarships From China CPEC Phase II
Pakistan has formally requested 10,000 fully funded PhD scholarships from China to train its youth in advanced technologies and strengthen the human-capital component of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor CPEC.
The proposal was presented during the latest meeting of the Joint Cooperation Committee JCC, where Chinese officials reportedly expressed initial interest and asked for further technical details.
According to Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal, the scholarships would allow Pakistani students to study at China’s top 25 universities in fields such as artificial intelligence, robotics, engineering, biotechnology, materials science, and green technologies.
Purpose Behind the Proposal
The government’s objective is to rapidly equip Pakistan’s youth with advanced skills to support:
- Economic modernization
- Industrial upgrade under CPEC
- Development of a knowledge-based economy
- Human resource capacity in high-tech sectors
Iqbal said the initiative aims to build the “soft infrastructure of CPEC” by producing a new generation of highly qualified professionals who can steer Pakistan’s technological future.
Additional Youth-Focused Proposals
Pakistan has also proposed:
- Joint vocational training centres
- Youth innovation and incubation facilities
- Internships in Chinese tech and industrial companies
- Capacity-building programmes in green energy and digital transformation.
Background: Pakistan’s Youth Crisis
A recent World Bank report warned that 37% of young Pakistanis 15–24 are neither working nor attending school.
The trend is more severe among:
- Women
- Urban low-income households
The report cautioned that weak training and low education quality could worsen inequality and restrict future economic growth.
Institutional Strengthening
To improve project execution and planning capacity, Pakistan has also proposed hiring international consultants under a Rs 5.4 billion framework currently under review by the Central Development Working Party CDWP.
