About the scholarship
The Scholarships were established in 2004 and are funded by the University of Auckland. These regulations also apply to faculty and externally funded Summer Research Scholarships that are administered by the central University of Auckland Summer Research Scholarship Scheme.
The main purpose of these Scholarships is to give current international and domestic university students an opportunity to experience research, and to thereby encourage them to pursue postgraduate study at the University of Auckland.
How To Apply
Scholarship applications will usually open around six weeks before the closing date. Please read the regulations carefully to be sure you are eligible before you apply.
