The University of Newcastle, Australia

The University of Newcastle in New South Wales funds its research students through the national Research Training Program, which covers most doctoral stipends and fees at Australian universities, and its taught students through a smaller set of faculty and named awards. The records below reflect that: named scholarships, memorial funds and faculty awards sit alongside the research funding, and several of the donor funds on this page are aimed at students from the Hunter region or specific fields rather than international applicants generally.

International students should read the eligibility line on each card before the title, because the regional and community focus of many Newcastle funds means they are not open to everyone. The genuinely open international options are the RTP-funded research scholarships and the university's general merit and faculty awards, which appear below with their own application routes.

Newcastle's scholarship office publishes current rounds once a year, and the official link on each card leads to the page that states eligibility and the real deadline. For research degrees the deadline that matters is usually tied to the admission round of your program, so confirm both on the linked pages before you apply.
