What is the Chevening Scholarship Scheme?
Chevening Scholarships are the UK government’s global scholarship programme funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organisations. The programme makes awards to outstanding scholars with leadership potential from around the world to study postgraduate courses- mainly Masters- at universities across the UK.
Celebrating 30 years
2013 is the 30th anniversary of the Chevening programme which began in 1983 and has developed into a prestigious international scheme. The objective of the Chevening programme is to support foreign policy priorities and achieve FCO objectives by creating lasting positive relationships with future leaders, influencers and decision-makers. Chevening Scholars come from over 120 countries worldwide (excluding the USA and the EU), and over 600 Scholarships will be awarded this year. There are over 42,000 Chevening alumni around the world who together comprise an influential and highly regarded global network.
The name ‘Chevening’ comes from Chevening House in Sevenoaks, Kent – currently the joint official residence of the British Foreign Secretary and the Deputy Prime Minister.
