British High Commission is offering Singapore Commonwealth Scholarships and Fellowships in Innovation to study in UK. Singaporean citizens are eligible to apply for these fellowships.
These programmes, managed by the Royal Commonwealth Society of Singapore, aim to part-fund the successful applicants for their industry placements or postgraduate studies in the UK in the fields of innovation, and promote knowledge transfer between both countries.
This Scholarship will support the successful applicant to undertake a fixed term placement in the UK at a university or in another body providing post-graduate courses. Applicants may find and arrange the placements themselves. The placement should include an aspect of research or development in an innovation related area.
