While congratulating this year’s scholars, British High Commissioner Alison Blake said, “I am very proud that many of the world’s top universities are in the UK.  The Chevening Scholarship is the UK government’s way of ensuring that those with academic and leadership potential from around the world are able to study and experience life in the UK.”
“Our Chevening scholars are the leaders that shape the future and strengthen relationships between countries,” she said, adding, “If you are a future leader of Bangladesh I would encourage you to apply for a Scholarship now to give yourself the chance of winning an award and benefiting academically, professionally and personally from studying in the UK, and exploring all that the UK has to offer.”
“Those who step forward to apply for a Chevening Scholarship are already demonstrating the kind of ambitious forward-thinking that typifies Chevening Scholars,” Chevening Secretariat Director Michael Scott-Kline said while opening the 2017/2018 competition for Chevening Scholarships.
“The potential rewards for applying are unquantifiable. Not only do scholars receive a first-rate UK education which can open doors in their respective careers, they also join a strong global network — a network they will draw on and contribute to for the rest of their lives,” he said.
