Inland Rail Scholarships Program

The Inland Rail Scholarships Program aims to provide real world education opportunities for regional students considering an undergraduate degree at University of Southern Queensland, Charles Sturt University and La Trobe University.

Students commencing study in 2020 and 2021 can apply for 20 Inland Rail Scholarships, each valued at up to $20,000, or $5,000 for every year of study.

Inland Rail Scholarships are a great opportunity for students to launch their career paths in industries which directly contribute to their region’s prosperity and social cohesion.

Indigenous people and those experiencing financial hardship are particularly encouraged to apply.

The Scholarships Program is part of the Inland Rail Skills Academy, which is creating value for communities along the Inland Rail alignment by offering education and training programs which increase the number of skilled local residents.
