Australia Awards are prestigious scholarships funded by the Australian Government available for Vietnamese citizens for master’s studies at Australian universities. The awards are for central, provincial and district-level agency officials (including mass organisations), staff of NGOs and Vietnamese companies, academics and researchers.
Australia Awards Scholarship awardees gain a world-class education in Australia, advance their knowledge and skills, and build networks across a range of areas, including agriculture, fisheries, forestry, digital transformation, education, environment, climate change and energy, governance and economic growth, gender equality, disability, health, regional stability and human rights.
Applicants are assessed on their professional and personal leadership attributes, academic competence and their potential to impact on development challenges in Vietnam and promote relationships between Vietnam and Australia.
Special support is provided to people with disability and people from disadvantaged rural areas to ensure equal access to the scholarships.
Australia Awards Scholarships are key priority of Australia’s assistance to Vietnam and contribute to strengthen the country’s human resource capacity.
“Australia is a popular destination for international student because of its reputation as a safe place to live and study. The country’s exceptional education system, diverse culture, welcoming environment, and natural beauty make it an enticing choice for those seeking a transformative academic experience” said H.E Andrew Goledzinowski, Australian Ambassador to Vietnam.
To date, the Australian Government has provided over 6,500 Australia Awards Scholarships for Vietnamese nationals to study in Australia. On their return to Vietnam, many alumni have been very successful in their careers – and are now in senior positions in Vietnam. Alumni have made substantial contributions towards Vietnam’s socioeconomic development and built invaluable lifelong networks both in Vietnam and Australia.
