Watch a short film about Chevening in India:

Chevening Scholarships offer highly coveted opportunities for India's future leaders, decision makers and opinion formers. They are specifically meant for outstanding Indians who are leaders in their own fields and are looking to form networks and strengthen their opportunities. They help recipients hone their leadership qualities by providing them with an opportunity to study in the stimulating intellectual environs of Britain's leading universities.

Successful applicants are judged on their personal attributes like intelligence, academic potential, drive, self management, strength of character, integrity, relevant interests outside work and wish to 'make a difference as well as their leadership potential - such as their influencing and communications skills, track record, existing network of contacts, ambitions and plans for the future.

Chevening alumni comprises leaders from civil society, academia, government, NGOs and business. Every alumnus works in partnership with other alumni, spread across the globe, on issues of mutual interest, strengthening ties between the UK and India.

Further information on  how to apply for a 2014/2015 Chevening Scholarship will be available soon.
