About the scholarship
The Scholarship was established to commemorate Miss Dulcie Bowman who died in February 1996. In spite of suffering from a significant hearing disability Dulcie Bowman graduated from The University of Auckland and thereafter pursuede Bowman’s sister, Miss Alva Bowman, who gifted a capital su a career in teaching. The Scholarship was established in 1996 by Dulcim to fund the Award.
The main purpose of the Scholarship is to encourage hearing-impaired female students at either undergraduate or postgraduate levels. A bequest from Alva Bowman’s estate allowed the Scholarship to be increased in value in 2002, also making it possible to offer two scholarships a year instead of one.
