Scholarships

Our aim is to continue to produce outstanding graduates who take up leading positions in business, government, academia and community sectors. Our range of Faculty scholarships reflects our strong links with industry and the corporate sector as well as our commitment to students.

Some scholarships are funded by the Faculty of Economics and Business or in joint sponsorship with Sydney Uni Sport & Fitness or residential colleges such as, Wesley College, The Women's College and St. Andrews College. Others are sponsored by corporations or by alumni and individual sponsors, such as Mr Charles Littrell and Dr Kimberley Cartwright, Mr Gilles Kryger, Mr V. John Plummer and Dr Phillip Noel Hartley Smith, as encouragement for students to continue the great traditions of the Faculty.

A scholarship from The University of Sydney is about more than financial assistance. It is recognition of an individual's talent and hard work.
