Taplin International Bursary for International Education

The Taplin Indigenous Bursary for International Education is funded by a grant given by Emeritus Professor John Taplin a former ���˴�Ƭ Pro Vice-Chancellor (International) with a strong commitment to the internationalisation of higher education.

The Donor is also motivated by the pioneering ethnographic and linguistic studies undertaken by his great-grandfather, the Reverend George Taplin, with the Ngarrindjeri people whose land encompasses the lower Murray River and Lakes region of South Australia, and his unremitting advocacy on their behalf in the early years following British colonisation of this State.

Applicants must be of Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander descent who regard themselves as Australian Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander and who are so considered by the community in which they live or have lived.

The bursaries are open to both current Indigenous staff and students of the ���˴�Ƭ and are available to assist with the expenses of international education and travel.

The recipients must use the bursary funds only for the following purposes:

• to undertake a program of study in a country with first nation peoples (with a preference for New Zealand and Canada) that is relevant to issues facing Australian Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people; or
• to attend a conference or visit relevant centres to investigate issues of relevance to Australian Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander people; and
• for legitimate costs associated with travel to the study program or conference such as airfares, accommodation and program expenses

Recipients must provide the University with a report outlining their experiences and how the bursary has assisted them after completion of their study program or conference.

Two bursaries per year will be awarded. The value of the bursaries is up to $5000 each subject to the recipients providing satisfactory documentary evidence of their costs.
