The Jardine Scholarship is a full scholarship offered by Jardines for study at the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.[1] It is considered among the world's most prestigious and selective international scholarship programs alongside the Rhodes Scholarship. It was established in 1982 to commemorate the company's 150th anniversary and was founded with the objective of developing future leaders, who would give back to the societies in which Jardine Matheson operates.[2][3] By 2018, 293 Jardine Scholarships had been awarded.[4]
