Douglas and Lola Douglas Scholarship in Health Sciences (Occupational Therapy)

This scholarship supports occupational therapy honours students at the Faculty of Medicine and Health at the University of Sydney. The scholarship has been generously bequeathed by the late Lola Rachel Maude Douglas to support students exhibiting outstanding academic performance in the undergraduate honours degree of occupational therapy. The scholarship is awarded on the basis of a research summary/proposal, a description of the potential impact of the research, and a letter of support from the applicant's research supervisor. Recipients must be currently enrolled full-time in the third year of the Bachelor of Applied Science (Occupational Therapy) Honours degree and must maintain satisfactory academic performance throughout the tenure of the scholarship. The value is determined yearly depending on the allocation of trust funds and is paid in two equal instalments during the fourth year of study.
