School of Computer Science & Engineering Scholarships (commencing Term 1, 2027)

The School of Computer Science & Engineering Scholarships provide financial awards to encourage recent high school leavers to commence an undergraduate degree in the UNSW School of Computer Science and Engineering. The scheme includes multiple named scholarships and awards, with annual values specified for recipients (examples include the UNSW Computing Informatics Scholarship tiers and the Women in Computer Science Award). Some scholarships are tenable for the minimum duration of an eligible program while others are one-year awards. Eligible students may be identified by the School or may need to submit a separate application where stated.

Annual stipend payments as specified per award tier (e.g. $7,000 pa / $6,000 pa / $5,000 pa), some tenable for the minimum duration of the eligible program, others one-year awards.

Recent high school leavers commencing full-time undergraduate study (single or double degree) in the UNSW School of Computer Science and Engineering are eligible; specific awards have additional criteria (for example, IOI/EGOI medal recipients or competitors). The Women in Computer Science Award requires Australian Citizen, Permanent Resident (including Humanitarian Visa holders) or New Zealand Citizen status and that the applicant be a woman, non-binary or gender-diverse student.

Eligible candidates will be identified by the School of Computer Science and Engineering and UNSW Scholarships for most awards.
