Be On High Alert for All the Prestigious Scholarships in 2011!

It's New Year once again and a whole new decade of opportunities now awaits those who want to go abroad for higher education and specialized research facilities. Some of the most prestigious scholarships available to study abroad aspirants this year have two common features - they look for aspirants who have distinguished themselves in their areas through their academic and professional excellence and they look for people who have a clear vision of what they want to achieve and how they will contribute back to the society.

Panasonic Scholarships are available for all the Asian graduates with good academic record, heading for Japan. If you are an Indian student looking forward to two-year programmes in America, UK, or Europe on full scholarship covering your living and one-way travel expenses, you can apply for ten Inlaks scholarships in February. However, the course choice for these scholarships has been limited as they do not computer science, engineering, business studies, urban planning, medicine, public health, history and Indian studies.

Business administration, public administration, and communication studies aspirants looking forward to a bachelor's degree from the US can apply for Fulbright Nehru Masters Fellowships while PhD scholars in all disciplines, registered at an Indian institution, can look forward to Doctoral and Professional Research Fellowships for a maximum period of nine months. For those who aim to do advanced research in modern Indian studies at the Oxford University, there are Agatha Harrison Memorial Fellowships too.

There are Mexican Scholarships, Reliance Dhirubhai Fellowships for the Stanford School of Business, German scholarships for postgraduate programmes, scholarships and fellowships for all Commonwealth countries, Charles Wallace scholarships, Gates Cambridge Scholarships to pursue postgraduate or research studies in Cambridge University offered in conjunction with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Opportunities are not limited for those who have a burning passion and if you have the brains, you can easily find ways to finance your studies. You just have to keep your eyes open. Shiksha Experts can tell you about scholarships and fellowships available in your field, for the programmes you want to study, for the institution you are aiming for, and for the country where you want to go for specialized learning.
