Financial Assistance for Honours Student


  • Professor D.R. Grey Postgraduate Research Foundation: Awards will be available to full-time Honours students in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences and will be made on the basis of need and academic merit. Applicants may request financial assistance towards costs of travel, books, equipment or maintenance resulting from their research. A case supporting each item claimed for payment must be made, including reasons why the items requested are not otherwise available from other funds. Candidates who already hold a scholarship or bursary are required to indicate the value of these. In 2006, the average grant paid was $750. Applications will be invited in April/May each year.

  • Jean M. Oxley Bursaries: These bursaries, to the value of $1,000, will be awarded to internal or external students in the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences who are proceeding to a fourth year of Honours in the Schools of the Faculty. Successful applicants will be selected on the basis of a combination of academic achievement and degree of need. Applications will close 31 December 2006 and should be made on the appropriate form which is available from the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences Office, Alluna Building, in early September.
