Alumina Industry Scholarship

The Alumina Industry Scholarship was established in 2020 under the Create Change Scholarship Match and Dow Chemical Challenge and is maintained by a gift from AQW Inc. This scholarship is part of the Liveris Academy Merit Scholarship Scheme, designed to encourage and support outstanding students in engineering, science, and related programs at the University of Queensland through financial support and membership with the Liveris Academy. The scholarship provides $10,000 per year for up to 3 years to current UQ students who demonstrate academic excellence with a minimum GPA of 5.8. Recipients must be enrolled full-time in Bachelor of Engineering (Honours), an engineering integrated program, Bachelor of Science, or a dual program including either of these programs, and must have completed at least 12 units but less than 27 units. In addition to financial support, AQW Inc may offer recipients an engineering mentor, member organisation site visits, and vacation employment opportunities at any AQW site. The scholarship aims to support students who demonstrate leadership potential, community service, alignment with Liveris Academy graduate attributes, and commitment to participating in co-curricular developmental activities.
