Sir John Monash Scholarship for Excellence
This scholarship is awarded in memory of Ross Booth (1952-2024), a long-serving member of the Department of Economics and Course Director of the BCom and BEc at the Clayton and Malaysia campuses. An enthusiastic supporter of the BCom Honours program, and educational opportunity in general, Dr Booth supervised a large number of honours students with rigour, warmth and empathy. At the time of his sudden passing, Dr Booth was supervising an honours student and two PhD students. Dr Booth was a mentor and friend to countless colleagues and students at Monash University, and in the broader sports economics, sports history, and sports community.
