Scholarships at the Archives

Since 1997, the Charles Sturt University Regional Archives has given many students the opportunity to gain practical experience in an archival setting.

The Charles Sturt University Regional Archives facilitates a number of student scholarships with the aim of contributing to local historical knowledge or to help give Information Studies students some hands-on experience in an archive.

These scholarships are open to suitably qualified Charles Sturt University students on a competitive basis.

Contact Wayne Doubleday, Manager of the Charles Sturt University Regional Archives for information about upcoming scholarship opportunities.
