British Council Women In STEM Scholarships
In partnership with the British Council, Queen Mary University of London offers five scholarships for Women in STEM for the 2026-27 academic year. Access to education is one contributing factor leading to the underrepresentation of women in STEM. The objective of this programme is to help address this situation by providing opportunities for women from South Asian countries to continue with their studies and research in STEM subjects. The scholarship covers full overseas tuition fees, a contribution towards monthly maintenance allowance travel, visa and other initial costs. Successful applicants must demonstrate a need for financial support, have not previously studied at degree level or higher in the UK, and must agree to return to their country of citizenship for a minimum of two years after the scholarship award has ended. The programme seeks applicants who are active in their field, willing to demonstrate future contribution to capacity-building and socio-economic advancement, and can demonstrate a plan and passion to engage other women and girls in STEM from their home country.
