Scholarships and Grants Ceremony 2009
The UniSA Foundation Scholarships and Grants Ceremony was held on Wednesday 27th May in
the Hawke Building at the City West campus. The event provided an opportunity
for UniSA to acknowledge the generosity of corporate and individual donors who
provide scholarships and grants to disadvantaged students and those with
outstanding academic ability. Almost 350 guests including staff, donors,
recipients and their families and friends celebrated the donors’ commitment to
providing students with academic opportunities.
More than 120 scholarships and grants valued at over $590,000 were presented at the event including the William T Southcott Scholarship (valued at $105,000) for a student undertaking PhD research in the field of Advanced Manufacturing Engineering, and seven separate awards from the Pank Family valued at over $60,000. Other presentations included the Annette and Leon Davis Scholarship for Port Pirie school leavers which is valued at $45,000 and the Jean Pearce Environmental Scholarship, valued at $90,000, which is available for PhD or Masters research in the area of environmental science.
Scholarship recipient, Krichelle Oaklands, and Deputy Director of Development, Yvonne Clark, share their thoughts on scholarship and grant opportunities at UniSA.
