Diverse Gender Scholarship
We have two scholarships available to help develop more inclusive learning environments for gender diverse students.
| Award value: $2,000 toward course costs for full time study, $1,000 for part time | Number available: 2 |

The total for a year of full-time study is $2,000 and for part-time study $1,000 and will be paid in two parts at the beginning of each semester.
Scholarship recipients will be hosted by the Ally Network, a group of staff and students who work to build an inclusive environment for diverse sexualities and genders at Unitec. The Network will be a welcoming group responsible for linking recipients up with services and people who will support success at Unitec. The Network is interested in what helps support success for scholarship recipients so they can further develop inclusive learning environments.
