The Sydney Royal Dairy Produce Committee, in partnership with the RAS Foundation, is providing a tertiary scholarship, the Sydney Royal Dairy Produce Scholarship.
This Scholarship is available to support an individual who demonstrates a passion for the NSW Dairy Produce Industry and who will play a part in shaping a positive future for the industry here in NSW.
A Scholarship of $5,000 for full time study or $2,500 for part time study is available.
There is no limit to the types of courses that qualify for the Scholarship or the age of the applicant but the applicant will need to demonstrate a strong dairy industry career pathway through their course of study.
This could include anything from agriculture science, farm management, veterinary biology and surgery, food technology to marketing, lab technician and journalism.
You could be studying at University, TAFE or a VET course, on campus or by distance learning. However, applicants all have one thing in common – a desire to play an active part in the future of the Dairy Produce Industry of NSW.
Applicants for the Sydney Royal Dairy Produce Scholarship must:
- Be enrolled or applying for study in any accredited tertiary course at an approved Australian education provider
- Demonstrate their passion and career aspirations to help build a successful future for the NSW Dairy Produce Industry
- Demonstrate how a scholarship would assist them in achieving their education or training goal
- A permanent resident of Australia, or Australian citizen residing in Australia.
