Put your summer holidays to good use with a six-week Summer Vacation Research Scholarship. You’ll gain valuable research experience working with our renowned supervisors to participate in a research project. If you’re a talented undergraduate science student enrolled in your second year or above, it’s an opportunity worth applying for.

Each scholarship is $3800 for a six-week research project. Project details and information on how to apply is available on the UNSW Scholarships website.
