United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Bangladesh, in collaboration with 'The Bangladesh Medical Students' Society (BMSS)' has launched the 'Scholarship for Medical Students' initiative-Bangladesh's first-ever programme offering medical students' free access to certified courses from world-renowned universities.

This initiative, under the Futurenation platform of UNDP and Grameenphone, will provide 300 medical students from 60 medical colleges across the country the opportunity to pursue specialized courses from prestigious institutions such as Johns Hopkins University, Yale University, Imperial College London, and others.
