Funded by Corporate Protection Australia, the CPA Indigenous Bursary provides support for Indigenous students enrolled in any undergraduate program at UniSC Moreton Bay or UniSC Sunshine Coast.

The aim of this bursary is to assist Indigenous students with financial need or with commitments to activities that impact on the time available for student study (eg. compulsory fieldwork placement, significant carer responsibilities etc).

The bursaries will be valued at A$2,000 and paid in fortnightly instalments over Semester 2.
