1. Australian Government – Rio Tinto NTRB Scholarships
Two Australian Government-Rio Tinto NTRB Scholarships are again being offered by Rio Tinto, FaHCSIA and the University of Dundee to lawyers who are currently working or interested in working in the NTRB system. The timing of the scholarships will correspond to the European academic year, commencing in September 2013. The two scholarships cover all the expenses involved in undertaking a one year Masters in Mining Law and Policy at the University of Dundee, Scotland (approx. A$43,000) and are open to any Australian resident with a law degree with no age restriction. The successful candidates will commit to work within the NTRB system for a minimum period of two years on completion of their studies.
FaHCSIA has agreed to continue to provide A$15,000 towards the living expenses of each scholarship recipient who is working within the NTRB system at the time they receive the scholarship. On-line applications can be found here, and will be open from Monday 18th February through to Friday 15th March, 2013. The LLM in Mineral Law and Policy Program is found here.
