Scholarships and prizes

A variety of scholarships and prizes are offered by the University of Sydney, with many faculties also offering their own scholarships (see faculty websites for details).

While there are currently no University-wide scholarships for students studying postgraduate coursework degrees the Scholarships Office may be able to provide information on prizes, composition scholarships or externally funded scholarship opportunities that are available to postgraduate coursework students.
