Summer Vacation Scholarships for third year students

You MUST apply for these summer vacation scholarships through the Monash Scholarships website at: http://www.adm.monash.edu.au/scholarships/opportunities/vacation-schols.html. The FINAL closing date for the applications for projects at the School of Mathematical Sciences is normally in early October.

Currently, these summer vacation scholarships will carry a stipend of $380 per week for up to six weeks (dates flexible) and are primarily aimed at students who have completed three years of an appropriate undergraduate degree, and may be entering Honours in the subsequent year, though exceptional second year students about to enter third year may also be considered.

Recipients must be an Australian permanent resident. The recipients of the awards are to be determined by the School on the basis of academic merit.

Please visit the Monash Scholarships website at: http://www.adm.monash.edu.au/scholarships/opportunities/vacation-schols-maths.html to check the list of summer Vacation Projects currently on offer and for the contact details of the supervisors if you wish to discuss any project. This list is usually updated in August each year.
