CHEVENING SCHOLARSHIPS-MASTER’S SCHOLARSHIPS IN UK
UK Government scholarships and fellowships that enable future
leaders to study in the UK, whilst joining a global community of professionals
who are creating positive change around the world.
Chevening
is the UK government’s international awards programme aimed at developing
global leaders.
Chevening offers a unique opportunity for future leaders,
influencers, and decision-makers from all over the world to develop
professionally and academically, network extensively, experience UK culture,
and build lasting positive relationships with the UK.
Chevening enables outstanding emerging leaders from all over the
world to pursue one-year master’s degrees in the UK.
There is no such thing as a ‘typical’ Chevening Scholar, but those
who are successful tend to have ambition, leadership qualities, and a strong
academic background.
We encourage you to apply if you meet our eligibility criteria and
other requirements. Your gender, age (there is no upper age limit), sexual
orientation, religion, marriage or parenthood status, caste, class, or other
attributes do not matter to us. What matters is your ability to submit a strong
application that demonstrates you are capable of excelling on an intense
master’s course in the UK, and that you have a clear vision for your future –
and maybe even that of your sector or your country.
