National Archives of Australia opens up archives for students!

About the scholarships |

Instituted in 2011, the National Archives of Australia/Australian Historical Association postgraduate scholarships are offered twice each year, with applications closing on 30 April and 31 October.

The scholarships are open to postgraduate students undertaking research towards a Masters or PhD degree in history. Each 12-month award offers facilitated access to National Archives records, including up to $2375 in digitisation services.

National Archives of Australia/Australian Historical Association scholarships assist talented postgraduate scholars with the cost of making digital copies of records held in the Archives available for viewing on the Archives’ website. For example, scholars may be based in one city and want to see records located in an Archives repository in another city. Assistance with digital copying costs will provide access online to material that might not otherwise be possible.
