On 11 September, UK’s Chargé d’Affaires to Armenia, Ambassador Helen Fazey hosted a farewell reception for departing Chevening Scholars who have been selected for master’s degree scholarships at UK universities in 2020-2021. Ms Fazey presented certificates to the three successful Scholars and wished them the best of luck for the exciting academic year ahead.
Chevening Scholarships are the UK Government’s global scholarship programme, funded by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) and partner organisations. The scholarships support study at UK universities – mostly one-year master’s degrees – for individuals with demonstrable potential to become future leaders, decision-makers, and opinion formers. The scholarships also provide opportunities to gain access to a wide range of exclusive academic, professional and cultural experiences.
Over the last 36 years, over 50,000 outstanding individuals worldwide have had the opportunity to study in the UK through Chevening.
