Chevening is the UK Government's international awards scheme funded by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) and partner organisations.
They offer two types of award - Chevening Scholarships and Chevening fellowships - giving the opportunity for future leaders and influencers from all over the world to develop professionally and academically, network extensively, experience UK culture, and build lasting positive relationships with the UK.
In April 2018 the University of Sheffield hosted the Chevening workshop with the Grantham Centre for Sustainable Futures. We invited all the Chevening Scholars in the UK to attend sessions on what sustainability means and how it can be applied in everyday life.
- Be a citizen of a Chevening-eligible country or territory (View the full list on the Chevening website)
- Commit to returning to your home country for at least two years after your scholarship ends.
- Have at least 2,800 hours of work experience after graduating from your undergraduate degree. This is roughly equivalent to two years of full-time work, though it may have been completed over a different time period.
- Hold an undergraduate degree that qualifies you for a UK master’s programme. You must have finished your undergraduate studies at least two years before our application deadline, even if you have not yet received your certificate. However, you will need to have your certificate by the time of your interview.
- Apply to three different and eligible UK university courses. You must have received an unconditional offer from at least one of these course choices by the references and education documents deadline listed on the application timeline.
Applications must be submitted via the Chevening website.
Please refer to the guidance on the website before applying, including the frequently asked questions. Check deadlines carefully, as applications received after the deadline may not be considered.
You should also refer to the country pages on the Chevening website which contain guidance for applicants from your country, including priority subject areas.
