Scholarship Opportunities for Your Students

Here are some great scholarships available for you to share with your post-graduate students.

  • The Carolyn Allport Scholarship for post-graduate feminist studies by Research is available for any student undertaking postgraduate feminist studies in any discipline, awarding $5000 per year for a maximum of 3 years to the successful applicant. This scholarship has been created in recognition of Dr Carolyn Allport’s contribution to the leadership and development of the Union in her 16 years as National President.
  • The Joan Hardy Scholarship for post-graduate nursing studies by research is available for any student undertaking a study of nurses, nursing culture or practices, or historical aspects of nursing as a lay or professional practice. A sum of $5000 will be paid in two instalments; half on the awarding of the Scholarship and the remainder on evidence of submission of the thesis. This scholarship recognises the contribution that the late Joan Hardy made to higher education and higher education unionism in over 30 years of activism.

The deadline for applications to both scholarships is Friday 25 August 2023. A decision will be made in late September 2023. Click here for information on how to apply for each scholarship.

Applicants must be currently enrolled in postgraduate studies, by research, in an academic award of an Australian public university.
