Chevening Scholarships are a global scholarship programme backed by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organizations and sponsored by the UK government. Outstanding scholars with leadership potential from around the world can apply for awards to study for a master's degree in any topic at any UK university. These scholarships are given out by the UK government to students who have excelled academically and demonstrated high leadership potential. The scholarship recipients are hand-picked by British embassies around the world.
