16 June 2009 – Some of the best graduate students from Central Asia will be able to study at Cambridge thanks to a co-funding scholarship agreement signed last week between the Cambridge Overseas Trust and the University of Central Asia.
The signing last Friday was witnessed by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor Alison Richard, and His Highness the Aga Khan, visiting Cambridge to receive an Honorary Degree later in the day.
Signatories were Professor Bohdan Krawchenko, the Director of the University of Central Asia (UCA), and Michael O’Sullivan, Director of the Cambridge Overseas Trust.
The agreement is an outcome of the strong links established at an academic level with the University of Central Asia by the Cambridge Central Asia Forum (CCAF), the Cavendish Laboratory and others.
