Australia Awards
The University of Adelaide welcomes students sponsored by the Australian Government under the Australia Awards Scholarships scheme to undertake studies in a variety of areas.
The Australia Awards Scholarships program provides opportunities for candidates from a wide range of countries to undertake postgraduate study in Australia (undergraduate study is also funded in a limited number of countries). The program aims to strengthen the human resource capacity of partner countries in agreed priority areas by providing scholarships to develop the skills and knowledge of individuals to drive change and contribute to development outcomes in their home countries.
