Roger's legacy
Roger McMahon was an exceptional man. He made an unrivalled contribution to international education, particularly in creating opportunities for students from his beloved “second home” of Kazakhstan.
After Roger’s death in 2019, as part of his legacy the Scholarship which bears his name was established by his friends and colleagues.
It is awarded each year to exceptional Kazakh students.
