Chevening Global Wales Scholarships
Chevening is the UK Government’s global scholarship programme, offering future leaders a unique opportunity to study in the UK. As part of the UK, Wales has agreed a new programme which is funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and Universities Wales.
These scholarships are open to students from Vietnam and India, and offer the chance of fully funded postgraduate study at any Welsh university. Chevening scholars can focus on achieving their academic goals while enjoying the experience of a lifetime.
Successful applicants will live and study in Wales for a year. It’s an unrivalled chance to develop professionally and academically, grow your network, experience Welsh culture and build a lasting relationship with Wales and the UK.
Subject: You can study a one-year taught Masters degree in any subject at any participating university in Wales.
Eligibility: To apply for a Chevening Global Wales scholarship, you need to be a citizen of India or Vietnam, have an undergraduate degree that will enable you to gain entry to a postgraduate programme at a UK university, and have a minimum of two years’ work experience.
