Victoria University of Willington 2023 Antarctic Research Centre 50th Anniversary Scholarship, New Zealand

This scholarship is funded by the Antarctic Research Centre to commemorate the Centre’s 50th Anniversary.

While the student will be expected to work within the broad topic of the 50 year history of the Antarctic Research Centre, there is scope to focus on specific aspects of this history according to the student’s interest.

This scholarship is for a student enrolling in a Masters by thesis degree under the supervision of Rebecca Priestley, from the Centre for Science in Society.
