British (UK)Scholarship for keen Papua New Guinea (PNG) Students

What is Chevening?

Chevening Scholarships are prestigious awards available to international students for study in the United Kingdom. The scholarships are named after Chevening House in Kent, the official country residence of the Foreign Secretary. They are available in more than 130 countries and around 1000 new Chevening Scholarships are awarded globally each year.

Chevening scholarships offer an ideal opportunity for young, high-flying graduates not only to study their chosen subject, but also to meet and network with their peers in the unique learning atmosphere that the UK provides.

The ultimate objective is to build a network of friends of the UK, who will be future leaders in their countries. Candidates are selected by the British Embassy/British High Commission. The scheme is managed by the British Council, on behalf of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office.

Scholarships

The Chevening scholarship scheme is funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) in the United Kingdom. Significant contributions are also made by UK higher education institutions, the private sector, other government departments and devolved administrations. The scheme is administered by the British Council, on behalf of the FCO, both in the UK and overseas.

In 2007–08 higher education institutions continued to offer part-scholarships for Chevening Scholars studying on full-time taught postgraduate courses under the core scholarship scheme. Private sponsors overseas also contributed generously. Consequently, under the main scheme, 1,059 scholars were supported in their studies in the UK.

The FCO, in partnership with higher education institutes and private sector participants, also fund a number of central partnerships, which resulted, in 2007–08, in a further 299 awards. This gives a total of 1,358 Chevening Scholarships for the whole year in addition to 31 continuing scholars from 2006–07.
