Women in Business
Certain sectors of the business world continue to attract fewer women than men. The UNSW Women in Business Program aims to change that. We provide a range of scholarships, mentoring opportunities and leadership development programs to help young women prepare for a career in business, particularly in finance, risk assessment and wealth management.
Your support will enable us to attract more bright female students to the UNSW Business School. With your help, we will grow the pipeline of talent from high school through to postgraduate levels and increase the number of women in business leadership positions.

Named Chairs
Great universities drive economic, social, scientific, technological and environmental progress around the world. It’s a mission driven by academic freedom, conceptual creativity and intellectual courage. But delivering those breakthroughs requires an intense focus on visionary research, global network-building and deep community engagement.
The UNSW Named Chairs program provides outstanding academic leaders with an opportunity to pursue their highest ambitions, free of routine teaching and administrative responsibilities.
By lending your support to a Named Chair, you will be empowering one of the great thinkers of our time. You will be raising their profile as a scholar, but also drawing attention to the great challenges they aim to address.
