Flinders University is a major supporter of the General Sir John Monash Foundation Australian Universities’ John Monash Scholarship. The Foundation offers up to eight scholarships per year for postgraduate study at a non-Australian university. Only Australian citizens graduating from Australian universities are eligible to apply. The scholarships are not limited by age, gender, or academic field of study, and may be taken up at any non-Australian university, subject to that university being considered to be amongst the global leaders in the chosen field of study. While no upper age limit is stipulated, scholarships are awarded to those whose major contribution to their field and to the community lies ahead of them.

John Monash Scholars are selected on the basis of their demonstrated and potential leadership contribution to their fields of endeavour and to the Australian and global community. Applications for the 2013 scholarships close on 31 August 2012.
