The Ministry of Defense announced the launch of the scholarship program for distinguished foreign military colleges with a renewed vision, which aims to attract outstanding high school graduates accepted into the ministry's military colleges, to prepare qualified officers according to the highest global standards, combining national qualification with international experience, thereby contributing to enhancing the readiness of the armed forces and meeting their current and future needs.

The program annually sends 250 students for 5 years to 21 distinguished universities, academies, and military colleges in 9 friendly countries: the United States, the United Kingdom, France, Spain, Italy, South Korea, Australia, Japan, and China, enabling scholarship recipients to benefit from advanced educational environments and diverse international experiences.

The program was launched several years ago and has enrolled thousands of talented students, contributing to the development of their leadership and cognitive abilities and enhancing the readiness of the armed forces.
