Fully Funded Oxford-Weidenfeld and Hoffman Scholarship in UK has opened the application. The Oxford-Weidenfeld and Hoffmann Scholarships and Leadership Programme has established in 2015 thanks to generous donations from multiple donors to mark the 95th birthday of Lord Weidenfeld.

This scholarship is part of the Oxford Graduate Scholarships, which were established through a ground-breaking new matched funding initiative to enable the creation of fully-funded scholarships for graduate students of the highest caliber from across the world. The University contributes 40% of the funds for these scholarships, together with 60% from generous donations provided by supporters of the Weidenfeld-Hoffmann Trust, including Foundation Hoffmann. Foundation Hoffmann is a Swiss-based grant-making institution supporting the emergence and expansion of concrete projects which address global problems in today’s societies.

Eligible graduate programmes related to agriculture, health care, environmental and water management, economics, public and foreign policy. See the official website for the complete list of eligible programmes.
