The CSC is offering a special programme of Commonwealth Master’s and PhD Scholarships to welcome the Gambia’s return to the Commonwealth in 2018.
The scholarships are for full-time Master’s and PhD study at a UK university.

These scholarships are offered under six themes:
- Science and technology for development
- Strengthening health systems and capacity
- Promoting global prosperity
- Strengthening global peace, security and governance
- Strengthening resilience and response to crises
- Access, inclusion and opportunity
