Call for Webinar: Opportunities for the UK arising from the Bolashak Presidential Scholarship in Kazakhstan

Did you know that 39% of all Bolashak scholarship awardees over the 21 years of the programme’s existence have chosen the UK as their place of study? This corresponds to 4,000 people having obtained their bachelors, masters and PhD degrees and passing various language foundation courses, research activities and non-degree fellowships in UK HEIs. Would you like to find out how your institution could also engage with new opportunities from Bolashak? Do you have a question to ask the President of the Centre for International Programmes (CIP) directly?
