Scholarship opportunities and seed funding are available to Higher Degree Research students.
We receive a very high number of requests from secondary students hoping to complete work experience placements at our Museums. We appreciate the interest and would love to accommodate these requests, however our program is currently oversubscribed, and no placement opportunities are available.
