The Endeavour Awards launched by the Australian Government under the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) is an opportunity for citizens of Asia, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas to undertake study, research and professional development in Australia. These awards also include scholarships for Australians to undertake study, research and professional development abroad.
The Endeavour Awards aim to:
- Develop on-going educational, research and professional linkages between individuals, organisations and countries;
Provide opportunities for high achieving individuals from Australia and overseas to increase their skills and enhance their global awareness;
Contribute to Australia’s position as a high quality education and training provider, and a leader in research and innovation; and
Increase the productivity of Australians through an international study, research or professional development experience.
There were two rounds considered for the Awards. The first round ended on 31 July 2010. The second round is now open to accepting applications until 31 January 2011.
Applications should be submitted through Endeavour Online, the online system which allows applicants to enter their personal details and information on their proposed program, and to upload the required supporting documentation. There is a step-by-step guide on how to use this online system available in the link given below.
Awards for this round will announced the end of April 2011. Please note that a full suite of awards will not be offered in the second round. For more information, visit this link.
