The National Tertiary Education Union is again offering the Joan Hardy Scholarship for post-graduate nursing research.
The Joan Hardy Scholarship is available for any student undertaking a study of nurses, nursing culture or practices, or historical aspects of nursing as a lay or professional practice.
The student need not therefore be or have been a nurse and can undertake the study in disciplines/schools other than nursing.
A sum of $5000 will be paid in two instalments; half on the awarding of the scholarship and the remainder on evidence of submission of the thesis.
Applicants must be currently enrolled in an academic award of an Australian public university and expect to submit the thesis within one year of being awarded the scholarship.
This scholarship recognises the contribution the late Joan Hardy made to higher education and higher education unionism in over 30 years of activism.
The application deadline is Friday 30 July 2021. A decision will be made in late August – early September 2021.
