About the scholarship
The Colin Holmes Scholarships were developed in 2009 by the Board of Trustees for the Westpac Taranaki Agricultural Research Station (now the Dairy Trust Taranaki, DTT), with DairyNZ co-funding these scholarships from 2017. The scholarships exist to encourage postgraduate research that will benefit the dairy industry. The scholarships are named after Professor Colin Holmes in recognition of his outstanding service to the dairy industry during his 40-year research and lecturing career at Massey University prior to his retirement in 2007.
Entry requirements
Applicants must be enrolled at postgraduate level in studies on farm production topics beneficial to the dairy industry, and where the research component of the course will occupy the full year (master’s and PhD programmes).
