Selection of students

Students will be selected on the basis of:
  • Academic merit and all relevant Civil Engineering selection criteria for La Trobe University.
  • Partnership between student and employer-partner (that includes agreed commitments to work for the Employer-partner for a defined period after graduation).
Students may enter this program through one of three main pathways:
  • - 1 - Prospective students who reside in the Catchment, attempting their first tertiary qualification, may enter the program directly from secondary school.
  • - 2 - Prospective students who are employed in the Catchment in related occupations, and with a range of related skills, experience, and qualifications, which may be considered for credit in the program.
  • - 3 - Prospective students who reside in the Catchment and who have a related TAFE qualification subject to an agreed articulation agreement, and whose qualifications may be considered for credit in the program.
On application students are required to nominate one or more industry sponsors from those listed on the Current Sponsors page. Make your application on this form. If you are applying for more than one Bendigo Civil Engineering scholarship you will also require a Preference Form.
