Applications are now open
Scots Australian Council scholarships are awarded in partnership with Scottish universities and Scottish business and industry, together with the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office.
The aim of the programme is to develop lasting links between young Scots and Australians by offering outstanding graduates and young professionals the opportunity to study at a Scottish university.
Successful candidates will have a track record of ambition, excellence and achievement, the potential to become leaders in their chosen fields, and a clear idea of how their scholarship and period of study in Scotland will be of benefit not only to them but also to Australia on their return.
Applications for the 2006/07 academic year will close on 20 January 2006.
