[ASA] Sydney Institute for Astronomy: Vacation Scholarships 2015

[Tara Murphy]

Dear colleagues,

this year we are launching a new vacation scholarship scheme at the Sydney
Institute for Astronomy, generously supported by the Hunstead gift.

In addition to the regular School of Physics vacation scholarships, we are
offering two "*Hunstead Scholarships in Astronomy*" that are available for
research projects up to 12 weeks over the summer break. These will be
awarded to outstanding undergraduate students who are interested in
pursuing research in any area of astronomy, including observational,
theoretical, computational or instrumentation.

Scholars will receive a tax-free stipend of $497 per week and may be
eligible for an accommodation bursary of $250 per week if residing outside
of the Sydney metropolitan area.

More information, potential project topics, and application forms are
available here:

Applications close on Friday 28th August 2015. Any interested students
should contact Tara Murphy (tara at physics.usyd.edu.au).

It would be great if you could let your undergraduate students know about
this opportunity,

thanks,
Tara
