The University of Cambridge today announced a new scholarship programme for Indian students in honour of India's Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to provide full funding, covering fees and means-tested maintenance, for undergraduate study in any subject at any of the colleges that are part of the University of Cambridge.
A 1.5 million pound (Rs 9.75 crore) fund has been set up to support the Indian students, including a half million pound endowment in perpetuity.
As the programme develops, there are expected to be up to ten Manmohan Singh undergraduate scholars studying at the University at any one time. This initiative will enable more Indian students to study at Cambridge.
The fund will be underpinned by substantial funding from Cambridge Assessment, a department of the University and the parent of Cambridge International Examinations (CIE).
