The Australia Awards are prestigious international scholarships funded by the Australian Government. They offer the next generation of global leaders an opportunity to undertake study, research and professional development in Australia. The Awards strive to develop leadership potential and stimulate lasting change by empowering a global network of talented individuals through high-quality education experiences in Australia and overseas.
Graduates return home with new ideas and knowledge, and the ability to make a significant contribution to their home countries as leaders in their field.
The Australia Awards, funded by the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFAT), consist of the Australia Awards Scholarships and Australia Awards Short Course Awards.
The Australia Awards Scholarships are a key component of Australia’s bilateral aid program for Vietnam and are awarded each year to meet Vietnam’s priority human resource and development needs and improve links between Australia and Vietnam. For Intake 2024, Australia Awards Scholarships for Masters studies are available for Vietnamese applicants who meet selection requirements and criteria in the priority fields of study for Vietnam.
Note: Australia Awards Short Courses are only available under Aus4Skills non-scholarship human resource development components.
