Postgraduate study in the UK

Are you a graduate? Do you want to study in the UK for between three months and one year? The British government is offering scholarships to future high fliers who have the potential to become leaders, decision-makers and opinion formers in Croatia. We would like to acknowledge the partners who have co-funded some of the schemes, including the Croatian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and European Integration, the Open Society Institute, Cambridge Overseas Trust, the Shell Centenary Scholarships Trust, Sussex University and Oxford University.

The scholarships are for Croatian citizens who currently live in Croatia and who intend to return to Croatia to make their careers there.

Below is a summary of the schemes followed by details of the individual courses, candidate profiles, application details and what is covered by each scholarship.

Candidates are welcome to apply for more than one scheme, but should clearly specify in the cover note which schemes they are applying for. Please note that for Chevening Scholarships, Oxford University Foreign Service Programme and Hansard programme photographs are not needed at this stage. It is also not necessary for these programmes to translate documents originally written in Croatian, nor is it necessary to verify copies of the documents. Reference letters should preferably be written in English.
