Sixty new scholarships for Master's programmes in the UK are to be awarded to Indian students this year
British Prime Minister David Cameron has recently announced 60 new'Jubilee Scholarships' to be awarded to Indian students this year. The scholars will receive full funding for a one-year Master's course in the UK, starting September 2012.
Funded by the British Council and the UK Government, the scholarships have been launched as part of the celebrations for the Queen's Diamond Jubilee. The aim is to enable talent from across India to come and study Master's courses in business, administration, manufacturing, science or technology.
The awards will be open to applicants from all over India, and the scheme aims to include students from every Indian state among the awardees.
Rob Lynes, the British Council's director in India, says, "A scholarship is a fitting way to mark the occasion of the Diamond Jubilee, as it is the creation of new opportunity - not just for the student, but for the host institution to benefit from Indian perspectives and ideas, for new friendships to be made and new links to be created and fostered between our two countries."
