Swinburne International Excellence Scholarships for Undergraduate and Postgraduate Study

Swinburne University of Technology awards the Swinburne International Excellence Undergraduate and Postgraduate Scholarships to international students who are starting Bachelors or Masters study at the university. The award cuts your course fees by between 10% and 75% each year, and the reduction applies for the length of your degree, up to a set maximum.

It is aimed at international applicants from outside Australia and New Zealand.

Visit the official website (link below) for detailed information on how to apply for this scholarship.

This award suits international students from outside Australia and New Zealand who plan to start a Bachelors or Masters degree at Swinburne and want a fee reduction rather than a separate scholarship application.

Undergraduate applicants should check that their chosen degree is not the Bachelor of Aviation and Piloting or the Bachelor of Aviation and Piloting/Bachelor of Business double degree, since those are excluded.
