Travelling and Placement Funds for Master of Teaching Students in 2023
The Melbourne Graduate School of Education is delighted to announce that scholarship opportunities will be made available in 2023 to support Master of Teaching students undertaking international placements and regional, rural and remote Indigenous placement opportunities as part of their program of study.
