Each year we offer a limited number of $300 bursaries for undergraduate and postgraduate coursework students undertaking an approved international study-related experience that will enhance their studies with the School of Education. These bursaries are available to students for travel outside Australia and not in the student’s country of permanent residence.
The bursaries are awarded on the basis of the student’s academic merit and of the value of the proposed exchange or experience as determined by the School of Education’s Engagement Committee.
Applications must be completed on the relevant form and submitted to the Engagement Committee at least eight weeks prior to the intended departure date.
Students intending to undertake an international experience activity that enhances their degree program at UQ are also encouraged to apply for a UQ Advantage Grant (in addition to the School of Education international experience bursary).
Students should note that the School of Education international experience bursaries are not for international student exchange purposes as other financial support schemes are available for this type of study-travel.
