Welcoming bright and talented students, who are passionate about understanding and tackling climate change, will go a long way towards supporting our commitment to environmental and social justice. “Education and research transcend international boundaries, and our international students bring a passion for education, innovation and entrepreneurial thinking.”



Professor Judith Rankin, Dean of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, Newcastle University, UK, added: “This is an excellent achievement for Newcastle and reflects our work to make sure that Newcastle is seen as providing a welcoming and inclusive environment where all students can thrive.”



Salvador Lopez, Regional Director Education South Asia, British Council said: “We are thrilled to support talented women from across this region to engage in a top UK degree in STEM fields, our commitment to girls education and addressing gender imbalances in the science, technology and innovation world is increasing, and we aim to transform lives of communities through women empowerment and strengthening links between people of the UK and South Asia.”
