Macquarie University Vice-Chancellor’s International Scholarship Review

The University of Sydney International Scholarships offer outstanding support to international students pursuing postgraduate research degrees. This includes both Master’s by Research and PhD programs, enabling students to engage in innovative research at one of Australia's leading universities.

The scholarship covers full tuition fees and provides a yearly stipend of approximately AUD 37,000, ensuring students can focus entirely on their studies and research without financial stress. This comprehensive funding makes it one of the most attractive options for international scholars.

Unlike many other scholarships, applications are accepted on a rolling basis, offering flexibility for students to apply throughout the year. This allows candidates to plan and prepare their applications at their own pace.

Open to international applicants, including those from Pakistan, this scholarship is highly competitive and awarded based on academic excellence. It offers not just financial support but also the chance to join a globally respected academic and research community.
