The UK's prestigious Chevening Programme provides scholarships for postgraduate studies and research in the UK.

The British Council administers scholarship schemes on behalf of the FCO and co-sponsors. These scholarships are available for Israeli nationals to undertake postgraduate study and research in the UK for 3 to 12 months. Scholarships fully or partially cover academic fees, living expenses and return economy airfare. All fields of study will be considered, but priority will be given to subject areas related to politics and government, conflict prevention, economic and regional development, law and human rights, environment, media, business and economics, information technology and applied science.

The application cycle for Chevening Scholarships is now closed. Past recipients are invited to join the British-Israeli Alumni Association. For more information, please visit the British Council website.
