GREAT Scholarships 2024
In partnership with the British Council and the GREAT Britain Campaign, one scholarship is on offer for students with nationality of Bangladesh, China, and India applying for science and technology postgraduate courses.
From excelling in debates to a law career at UWE, I chose it for its impressive presentation, faculty support, and welcoming community. Overcoming challenges, I thrived in studies, connected with inspiring teachers, and after BPTC, returned to Bangladesh, embracing teaching and legal practice and joining a large company, cherishing UWE's impact on my life.
