Outline

The purpose of the Award is to provide an opportunity for undergraduate students in the Faculty of Engineering or the School of Built Environment to study at an overseas partner university. This Award will provide a chance for students from all walks of life to experience the cultural and life enrichment of travel during their undergraduate degree.

It is intended that the Award will be awarded to a student undertaking overseas exchange in Term 3, 2026.

Eligibility

To be eligible, applicants must meet all the following criteria:

  • Be enrolled full-time in any undergraduate coursework program in one of the following Faculties or Schools:
      • Engineering
      • School of Built Environment
    Note: In the case the successful recipient already holds a travel award of the same value associated with exchange in Term 3, 2026, the award will be allocated to the next successful recipient as only one travel award is permitted per exchange.
