The Australian Wool Education Trust is pleased to announce the introduction of “Students’ Work Experience and Careers” grants for universities to assist their students to become career ready. For 2025, a total of $70,000 has been allocated for individual institution grants up to a maximum of $10,000. The grant proposals are a university’s discretion, i.e. whatever the University believes will provide the best outcomes for students. An additional criterion is that the project must be wool and/or wool sheep focused, with preference given, but not limited to, agriculture/animal science students.
AWET calls for applications from Australian institutes. Applications (1 page detailing plans and target audience) are to be sent the AWET Secretary (kerry.hansford@woolwise.com), by Friday 1st November 2024.
