Every student dreams of studying abroad in a world-renowned university but their dreams are not fulfilled due to the large amount of money involved. This would no longer be a cherished dream as the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation (HSBC) Ltd India has announced the HSBC Scholarship Programme.
The scholarship programme will be introduced to help students in getting easier access to studying in the United Kingdom (UK).
"The programme will select two students and will provide them £25,000 (Rs.20 lakh) per year to pursue any graduate and post graduate programme at Oxford University, Cambridge University or University of London," said Malini Thadani, head group communications and corporate sustainability at HSBC.
In its eighth year, the aim of the programme is to build a community of leaders that will attain global knowledge and at the same time contribute to the society.
"We are in a lookout for students with a potential and the vision of improving the lives of people not only in India but around the world. The passouts from this scholarship programme are expected to use their education for the benefit of others," added Thadani.
