BCG First Nations Scholarship & Internship

The BCG First Nations Scholarship & Internship is designed to empower First Nations students and help them reach their goals. BCG has offered annual scholarships since 2004 to university students in Australia and New Zealand to support outstanding future leaders with their studies and beyond. Since 2021, they have offered this dedicated First Nations scholarship. As a BCG First Nations Internship and Scholarship recipient, students receive $20,000 in scholarship funding and join one of BCG's offices as an intern for 8 weeks. Participants learn about the work BCG does and explore how they can make a difference with clients, colleagues, and communities. They are assigned a mentor through the remainder of their studies, as well as a buddy who will support them during their internship. The program is looking for driven, curious students from all backgrounds who are excited by a challenge and want to have a positive impact on their communities, whether local, national or global. Recipients gain real-world experience before they graduate through the internship component.
