Co-op Programs
The Co-op scholarship programs, offered only to
domestic students, have been established by industry

training to high-achieving students.
The programs combine the academic rigour of the degree including 18 months of industry
experience with highly sought after sponsor organisations and a substantial tax-free
scholarship paid on a per annum basis for the duration of the degree. Plus, professional
development and leadership training and mentoring from an academic co-ordinator.
