Faculty of Science Dean's Postgraduate Research Scholarship Program

The Faculty of Science Dean’s Postgraduate Research Scholarship Program gives scholarships to Masters by Research and PhD students, giving the faculty’s brightest graduates an immediate pathway to a higher degree.

The Dean of Science Professor Rob Norris established the program to help address a national need for more investment in science and technology research. He and his wife Margaret have made a substantial gift and pledge to the scheme.

Scholarships are awarded to students pursuing a Higher Degree by Research after achieving first class honours. The scheme is structured as an endowment fund – meaning that the scholarships will be able to be offered in perpetuity.
