It initially serves the Ministry’s higher education development strategic plan to embrace the higher education globalization by providing financial assistance (scholarship) to selected Indonesian Universities to recruit potential International students to get their master degree in those Universities.

71 developing countries around the world. We know that most of future applicants might be thinking: is spending 3 years in Indonesia to obtain their master degree worth it? And the answer is a resounding yes, getting the KNB scholarship and going to a master degree program in Indonesia
is strategically worth it. Their master degree will be one of the most lucrative investments they will make and that KNB scholarship can be vital to their postcollege success while engaging in the most diverse and vibrant society in the world.
