Funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth, and Development Office and partner organisations. These organisations offer awards to study in the UK for one year on a fully funded master’s degree course.
Successful Chevening candidates come from a diverse range of countries and backgrounds, but they all demonstrate the passion, vision, and skills needed to shape a better world.
