Summer Research Scholarship Programme

Applications are invited for the 2024/2025 Summer Research Scholarship Programme. The Division of Health Sciences offers a range of Summer Research Scholarships in Dunedin each year. Scholarships are available for a 10-week period between November 2024 and February 2025.

Please note the programme is highly competitive and we expect the success rate to be around 15-20% in 2024 if we receive the same number of applications as last year.

If you have any questions, please contact:

To be eligible for a tax-free summer scholarship, a student must be intending to enrol at a New Zealand or Australian University in the following year. This is to ensure that the University meets its tax and legal requirements. If the student does not return to study the following year, they will be required to pay withholding tax by the Inland Revenue Department (IRD).
