About This Opportunity
The Said Foundation offers twenty postgraduate scholarships annually to outstanding individuals from Syria, Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan who demonstrate the potential to become leaders and innovators of change. Scholarships are primarily offered for one-year postgraduate courses but in exceptional circumstances, it may be possible to consider applicants for two-year courses. There are no restrictions on academic subjects but priority will be given to candidates who can demonstrate that their subject will enable them to contribute to the development of their home country. The Foundation provides full funding, including full tuition fees, full maintenance/living costs for the duration of the course, an arrival allowance, a thesis allowance, visa fees, IHS fees, and one economy return flight.
