Maev O'Collins Scholarship

Emeritus Professor Ellen Maev O'Collins established this endowed scholarship in 2015 to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students undertaking health sciences and social work studies. The scholarship was created in recognition of Professor O'Collins' service to the people of Papua New Guinea through her studies and work in her career. This scholarship provides financial support to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students enrolled in the Faculty of Health Sciences at Australian Catholic University's Canberra campus who are experiencing financial hardship. The scholarship supports full-time students pursuing studies in health sciences and social work fields.
