The Endeavour Awards is the Australian Government’s internationally competitive, merit-based scholarship program providing opportunities for citizens of the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Europe and the Americas to undertake study, research and professional development in Australia. Awards are also available for Australians to undertake study research and professional development abroad.
The Endeavour Awards aim to:
- Develop ongoing educational, research and professional linkages between individuals, organisations and countries;
- Provide opportunities for high achieving individuals to increase their skills and enhance their global awareness;
- Contribute to Australia’s position as a high quality education and training provider, and leader in research and innovation; and
- Increase the productivity of Australians through an international study, research or professional development experience.
The Endeavour Awards are a part of the Australia Awards initiative, which brings together, under a single recognisable brand, the Endeavour Awards run by the Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations’ (DEEWR) and the Development Awards offered by AusAID.
