Barbara Hebden Music Bursary

The Barbara Hebden Music Bursary is awarded annually to a first-year Bachelor of Music student at The University of Queensland who demonstrates the greatest merit during their audition. The bursary value is equal to the annual income from the endowed fund. This scholarship was established in 2016 by an endowed bequest from the estate of UQ alumna and music critic, Barbara Jean Hebden OAM (BA 1952). Students are automatically assessed for the bursary during their audition for the Bachelor of Music program and do not need to submit a separate application. Preference is given to applicants who audition on a relevant instrument.
