"Without the Bindesh P Shah Studentship I would not have been able to accept my offer to study at Christ's College... Simply, it has enabled me to have the full Cambridge experience" - Rachel Lovitt, 2018-19 Scholar

The Bindesh P Shah Scholarship will support an exceptional candidate accepted for an MPhil course in the Faculty of Economics. The scholarship provides a contribution of £18,000 towards the cost of the MPhil course. The Faculty of Economics nominates candidates to College for the scholarship, and one will be chosen to receive the award. The successful candidate must become a member of Christ's College to take up the studentship. More information can be found here. Previous Scholarship recipients have gone on to further study, to work in government, and to work in the commercial sector.
