Every year the United Kingdom offers a few highly-coveted opportunities for Angola’s future leaders, decision-makers and opinion formers to study in the UK under the British Chevening scholarship scheme. These Scholarships are awarded on the basis of open competition.

The Scholarships are offered in over 100 countries. They enable talented graduates and young professionals who we identify as the potential leaders of tomorrow to gain skills which will benefit their countries, at the same time as becoming familiar with the UK.

Chevening Scholarships
