Summer Vacation Research Scholarship

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.

Eligibility

You must be currently enrolled in second-year or above of an undergraduate program in the Faculty of Science or a science-related discipline at UNSW or another Australian university. You must be able to be engaged in a project on a full-time basis (35 hours/week for six weeks during normal working hours unless advised otherwise by the supervisor). Projects must focus on research-based activities (administration tasks are not regarded as research) and should be completed by the end of February. Each successful candidate can hold only ONE such scholarship at a time. Students who were previously awarded a UNSW Science Vacation Research Scholarship are not eligible to apply.
