Professionals from across Pakistan are urged to apply for the United Kingdom government’s prestigious Chevening Scholarship, by the Acting British High Commissioner Richard Crowder. Chevening Scholarships are awarded to individuals who demonstrate leadership potential. It offers full financial support to study for a master’s degree at any UK university including course fees, travel and living expenses. The online application window for the 2019/2020 Chevening Scholarships closes on November 6. “The Chevening Scholarship programme gives scholars from across Pakistan the opportunity to study a fully-funded one year’s Master’s degree at any UK university, experience the diversity and culture of the UK and build networks with scholars from around the world. There is only a month left until the deadline so candidates should complete and submit their applications as soon as possible. We aim to have 50 percent female candidates from Pakistan by 2020, so I would particularly encourage eligible female candidates to apply,” Richard Crowler said.
