On the Senate’s advice, the University Council grants PhD fellowships. These grants are designed for applicants who are starting a Ph.D. program under supervision at the university. These grants are often only available to individuals seeking their first Ph.D. degree. Only one University of Otago PhD fellowship may be awarded to each applicant.
Similar to undergraduate scholarships, graduate scholarships are awarded by the University Council at the suggestion of the Senate. These scholarships are specially designed for applicants who are in their first year of master’s thesis study. The University’s PhD program accepts graduates with a Master’s degree as admission requirements. Only students pursuing their first research-based Master’s degree are eligible for these awards.
