The Grattan Scholars programme is a flagship initiative of the School of Social Sciences and Philosophy and supports exceptional PhD students who have the potential to become future academic leaders and influential voices for social and economic development.
Over the past 10 years the Grattan Scholars programme has hosted 20 Grattan Scholars from more than 15 countries internationally. In 2021, the School welcomed our 21st Grattan scholar.
Speaking at the event, Professor Carol Newman, Head of the School of School of Social Sciences and Philosophy welcomed the new scholars said: “Our School is committed to understanding and improving society through world-leading education and research and this objective is crystalized in the Grattan Scholarship programme.”
