Women in Science, Engineering, Technology & Construction

Scholarship Description

The Victorian Government, through the Dept of Infrastructure, is offering three $10,000 scholarships to female, full-time or part-time students starting or completing postgraduate students in Science, Engineering, Technology or Construction related fields. While more women are now undertaking courses relevant to some of these industries, there are still relatively few that choose a management career path. It is vital to develop a diverse workforce with both excellent technical and business skills. Women with these skills or the potential to develop these skills need to be encouraged and supported to make a contribution. The winners of the scholarships will be given the opportunity to participate in part-time work at DOI during the year, subject to study constraints. Please consult the attached PDF or DOI website for application form and further details. Applications closed, next Round To be advised in due course
