Webb-Jenkins Veterinary Travel Scholarship in the School of Veterinary Science

This scholarship was established in 2012 and maintained by gifts from Ms Hilary Huey, who graduated from The University of Queensland with a Diploma in Physical Education in 1970. The Webb-Jenkins Veterinary Travel Scholarship provides financial support of at least $1,000 to domestic students enrolled in the Bachelor of Veterinary Science (Honours) program who have been approved to undertake the practical placement component in a rural community. The scholarship is designed to assist students with travel and living costs associated with rural veterinary placements. Selection is based on academic achievement in courses undertaken to date, financial circumstances, personal qualities, and evidence relevant to future success in the veterinary profession. Preference is given to students who intend to work in rural locations after completing their program.
