Summer Research Scholarships

If you’re a third-year student or above, you could spend the summer supporting a research project in the Faculty of Engineering and earn a valuable scholarship.

Over the summer the Faculty provides several scholarships to students, offering a unique opportunity for students to gain experience in research—with the added bonus of paid work over the summer trimester. Before applying, please read the Summer Scholars Scheme conditions to ensure that you are eligible to apply.

Students will be selected on the basis of academic merit, expertise in the research area, and recommendations from staff associated with the project.

2024/2025 Summer Research Scholarship applications will open Monday, 26 August 2024 and close at 4:30 p.m. Friday, 6 September 2024.

Opportunities for Māori students are also available through the Ahunuku Māori Summer Research Scholarship.
