Chevening is the UK government’s premier scholarship scheme, aimed at future leaders, opinion formers and decision makers. These scholarships are offered in more than 150 countries and are funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

The scholarships are intended for candidates who wish to undertake one-year taught courses leading to a Master’s qualification. Most successful candidates are aged between 25 and 35.
Candidates are also expected to show a commitment to return to Malaysia, where they will contribute to the country’s socio-economic development using the new skills and knowledge acquired during their stay in the UK.
What costs do these scholarships cover?
* Travel costs to and from the UK
* Academic fees (with the exception of business school programmes, where the fees’ element of the scholarship is capped at £12,000)
