United Kingdom Education Universities I Colleges I Schools I Private Training I English Schools A United Kingdom education is second to none. We lead the world in cutting-edge research opportunities, internationally recognised degrees and relevant, high-quality, high-standard training. I am delighted that over 800,000 international students are finding this out for themselves.
International students no longer need to obtain permission to work, so they can earn extra money while studying in the United Kingdom. A student can work part-time for up to 20 hours a week during term time and full-time during vacations. And if the course runs for a year or more, the student’s dependants can now work in the United Kingdom, even if they here for less than a year.
Studying
in the United Kingdom will not only give students a thorough understanding of the
subject but also analytical abilities and problem solving skills that
are much prized by employers.
As part of our plans, the flagship Chevening Scholarship Scheme now offers up to 1,000 scholarships each year for overseas students to undertake postgraduate study or research in the United Kingdom.

But we want even more people to be aware of these
opportunities. In June 1999, we announced the start of a worldwide campaign to
increase the number of international students in the United Kingdom. We set a new target
of attracting 75,000 extra students to the United Kingdom by 2005. To make this possible,
we have made studying in this country more affordable and more welcoming.
We
have also introduced simplified entry procedures for United Kingdom visa holders and
are making the visa service more user-friendly for students.
International students can now expect to have straightforward visa
applications dealt with within 24 hours, and non-straightforward
applications within 10 days.
The
chance to improve their language skills is bringing many students to
this country. English is the language of commerce, of the Internet, of
global communication and of medicine. We are proud that 750 million
people world-wide have now learnt our language. That English is becoming
a lingua franca means that students who have studied here are in demand
all over the world.
Most
Chevening scholarships are for one-year Masters courses, but some are
for shorter specialised courses lasting up to six months. Courses
include law, business administration and international relations. They
allow talented graduates and young professionals to become familiar with
the United Kingdom and to gain skills that will benefit their countries. British
Embassies and High Commissions select candidates for the scholarships,
which are offered in more than 150 countries including India, China and
Brazil.
