We are committed to contributing to a more sustainable world, in line with the United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals on Quality Education and Reduced Inequalities. In particular, we support initiatives that help ensure access to quality education for all vulnerable, disadvantaged or marginalised groups.
We have established the Quantedge – Cambridge Refugee Masters Scholarship to offer students from challenging circumstances the opportunity to study for an MPhil at the University of Cambridge. The scholarship will enable students who have been granted refugee status in the UK to acquire the perspectives, skills and experiences to become positive contributors to their communities and society at large.
The Quantedge – Cambridge Refugee Masters Scholarship is available annually and will cover full University course fees and living costs for one student for the period of study. The Scholarship is administered by King’s College, a constituent college of the University of Cambridge.

Henok Gheotom
AY2020/21 MPhil (Economics, Finance) “In 10 years, I definitely hope to be in a position where I have the resources to make the differences I wish to see now. Reflecting on my time in school, I observe that while talent is equally distributed, some lack resources to foster that intellectual curiosity. I want to bridge this gap and promote access to education as an agent for social mobility." |

As part of our continuing efforts to expand equalised access to quality education at all levels - from early childhood through to tertiary education, we have established the Quantedge - Lee Kuan Yew Masters Scholarship to fund academically deserving Singaporean students from less privileged backgrounds for an MPhil at the University of Cambridge.
Through exposure to overseas experiences, the Quantedge – Lee Kuan Yew Masters Scholarship hopes to nurture globally-minded, cross-culturally competent leaders to better navigate and shape our increasingly inter-connected and complex world. The Scholarship is available for full-time, one-year Masters courses across a broad range of disciplines, from the Arts and Humanities, to Sciences and Engineering.
The Scholarship is administered by Fitzwilliam College, a constituent college of the University of Cambridge. The Scholarship is set up in honour of Singapore’s founding father Mr Lee Kuan Yew, a former student at Fitzwilliam College.
