The Master of Social Justice Commencing Scholarship is a postgraduate coursework scholarship valued at $10,000 to support full-time students commencing the Master of Social Justice at the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences at the University of Sydney.
About University Of Sydney
When William Charles Wentworth proposed the idea of Australia’s first university in 1850, he imagined “the opportunity for the child of every class to become great and useful in the destinies of this country”. We’ve stayed true to that original value and purpose by promoting inclusion and diversity for the past 160 years. It’s the reason that, as early as 1881, we admitted women on an equal footing to male students. Oxford University didn’t follow suit until 30 years later, and Jesus College at Cambridge University did not begin admitting female students until 1974.
