About us
Award of Scholarships and Prizes
In April 1998 the Council delegated responsibility for the award of scholarships and bursaries to Academic Board which then empowered the Scholarships Committee to approve these awards. All scholarships and bursaries awarded are included in the Annual Report presented by the Scholarships Committee to Academic Board for transmission to Council.
Scholarships and Bursaries
Recommendations for the award of scholarships and bursaries administered by the University shall be referred to the Scholarships Committee, through the Graduate Research School. Once the recommendations have been approved, the Graduate Research School shall be responsible for advising the recipient and arranging payment of the award.
Prizes
Co-tenure
Most scholarships administered by Massey University may be held with other awards, although students should check the regulations of each award.
General Information
It is the applicant's responsibility, unless specifically asked to do otherwise, to contact their referees and ask them to send their references to the Graduate Research School. If the referee's report is to be attached to the application, the referee should enclose it in a sealed envelope.
Remember that the selection committee members may have a large number of applications to read and they will not be impressed with illegible handwriting or poorly presented applications.
Publicity
The names of the winners of scholarships, bursaries and prizes are published annually in the Graduation Handbook.
