New scholarships of up to $17,500 per student are available through the Commonwealth Scholarships Program for South Australia.

  • Stream 1 – defence industry (including naval shipbuilding)
  • Stream 2 – advanced manufacturing, health services and medical research, tourism and hospitality, wine and food, and energy and resources. Applications will also be accepted from students who intend to study in a field that is relevant to, and are currently employed by, a business with innovative practices that result in economic growth
  • Stream 3 – South Australian state-based skills needs. Any occupation listed on the Australian Government Department of Employment’s Skills Shortage List for South Australia will be eligible for a scholarship.

Scholarship applications for round one are currently open and close on 25 October 2017. A second round will open towards the end of 2017.
