Scholarships

Information for Industry & Community Partners

Welcome to the La Trobe University scholarships information site for Industry & Community Partners.

The University offers a wide range of scholarships to commencing and continuing students across all fields of study.

Why sponsor a scholarship?

Scholarships are an important means of:

  • encouraging students to study particular disciplines and courses
  • supporting capable students in financial need
  • attracting capable students to study in areas of current and projected skills shortage
  • developing meaningful relationships between students and prospective employers (these can be contractual)
  • accessing University research facilities and knowledge by linking students to your organisational projects through work-placements.

Industry scholarships assist students with living and study expenses at La Trobe University. Scholarships also important in highlighting to the student body possible employment opportunities that may exist within that industry.

Australia is enjoying its 16th year of economic growth. With the current and escalating skill shortages, employers are increasingly realising that they need to support study in areas of skill need and develop ongoing relationships with students.

There are various forms of scholarships that can be developed and interested organisations should contact us to discuss these opportunities.
