Chevening Scholarships offer full financial support for future leaders to study for any eligible master’s degree at any UK university.
Since the programme was created in 1983, over 50,000 professionals have had the opportunity to develop in the UK through Chevening.
British Ambassador to China, Barbara Woodward, said:
Our Chevening scholars are future leaders who have a powerful vision of how they want to change the world for the better.
If you are an exceptional individual who would like the opportunity to study in the UK’s internationally renowned Universities then please apply.
The Chevening China Network of alumni are ambassadors for the UK-China relationship. The network consists of around 4,000 people in leadership roles in government, business and NGO across a wide range of sectors and from every province in China.
This year, there were more than 800 applicants from every province across China. Around 50 chosen scholars will travel to the UK in September this year.
Chevening runs a selection process based on equality in gender, disability, sexual orientation, religion and age encouraging Chinese nationals from all backgrounds to apply via http://www.chevening.org/apply.

Notes to editors
Chevening Scholarships are the UK Government’s global scholarship programme, funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organisations. The scholarships support study at UK universities – mostly one year taught master’s degrees – for individuals with demonstrable potential to become future leaders, decision-makers, and opinion formers.
Chevening began in 1983 and has developed into a prestigious international awards scheme. Chevening Scholars come from over 160 countries and territories worldwide, and over the past five years we have awarded almost 9,000 scholarships. There are over 50,000 Chevening Alumni around the world who comprise an influential and highly regarded global network.
The name ‘Chevening’ comes from Chevening House in Sevenoaks, Kent – currently the joint official residence of the UK’s Foreign Secretary.
