Sengge (, ; died 1671) was a Choros-Oirat prince and the chosen successor of his father Erdeni Batur to rule over the Dzungar. Sengge ruled over a section of the Dzungar from 1653 until his murder in 1671 by his two older half-brothers Chechen Tayiji and Zotov Batur. Sengge is best known for defeating Erinchin Lobsang Tayiji, the third Altan Khan, in 1667 and eliminating the Altan Khanate as a potential future threat to the Dzungar.
Before his death in 1653 Erdeni Batur named his third son Sengge as his successor to the consternation and disbelief of Chechen Tayiji and Zotov Batur. Erdeni Batur's decision to name Sengge as the next ruler of the Dzungar was based on solely on his belief that Sengge was the ablest of his eight sons. As Erdeni Batur's chosen successor, Sengge was given the southern half of the Dzungar lands. The northern half would be split among Erdeni Batur's remaining seven sons.
