The UK’s Roehampton University has announced the creation of 200 new scholarships open to international students, varying in value up to £2,300 for MBA students.

The scheme is aimed at students completing the professional practice certificate in Special Educational Needs established through the UK-India Education Research Initiative (UKIERI).

As well as participating in UKIERI, Roehampton has established further partnerships in India with the Gujarat government as well as the University of Baroda.

Roehampton vice-chancellor Paul O’Prey said “In the most recent Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), the government’s assessment of the quality of research conducted in our universities came out as one of the best of any modern university. A third of our research is rated internationally excellent.”

Speaking of Roehampton’s Indian connections, O’Prey added: “India is becoming a very important part of our academic activity and we are becoming popular with Indian students wanting to study at our university at Master’s level.”
