Chevening Awards

Chevening Scholarships are the UK government's flagship international scholarships scheme with over 40 years of history aimed at developing global leaders. Queen Mary University of London works closely with Chevening to provide a large number of full scholarships for study on one-year Master's courses. Every year QMUL hosts around 50 Chevening Scholars but there is no cap on this number. All Chevening awards cover full overseas tuition fees, as well as providing a stipend for living costs, air-fares, and a variety of other expenses. Chevening Scholars also benefit from a year-long programme of events helping them experience the best of British culture and to make the most of their time in the UK. Around 1400+ Chevening Scholars are funded annually by the UK's Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) across the UK.
