Lara - UC Electrical & Electronic Engineering student

Receiving a scholarship is more than financial support - it is a meaningful recognition of hard work, perseverance, and potential. It affirms that the genuine interest and effort you invest in your goals are seen and valued. In many ways, it feels like a vote of confidence, encouraging you to keep striving and to believe in what you are capable of achieving.

Beyond this, a scholarship fosters a strong sense of community. It connects you with people who support your journey, offering guidance, encouragement, and opportunities to grow.

Especially when studying away from home, this network can make all the difference. It creates a reassuring sense that you are not alone, and that there are always people willing to support you and help you succeed.

Jack - UC Electrical & Electronic Engineering student

The EPECentre scholarship has enabled me to meet representative from different areas of the power industry and helped me identify the pathways in the sector that best align with my interests and skills.

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities provided from the EPECentre such as the North Island power systems field trip which highlighted New Zealand’s diversity of generation and industry demand for renewable energy.

So far in my electrical engineering career, I have had incredible experiences working at Edison Consulting Group and Meridian Energy, both of which are sponsors of the Aruhiko Power Engineering Excellence Trust.

Annabel - UC History doctoral student

The Barbara Kathryn Ell Travel Scholarship assisted me to undertake essential archival research at the Louvre Museum in Paris.

During this trip, I consulted a range of non-digitised historical documents that have proven central to the development of my thesis, allowing me to produce research that makes a meaningful contribution to existing scholarship. Access to these materials—along with the opportunity to engage directly with curators and archivists—greatly deepened my understanding of the museum’s historical functions.

This experience has not only advanced my current research but also affirmed my commitment to pursuing further postgraduate study. I plan to return to the Louvre’s archives to conduct additional research for my PhD in History, building on the momentum established during this trip.

The scholarship’s straightforward application process and financial support played a vital role in making this significant stage of my academic development possible.

Meg - UC Photography Fine Arts student

Receiving the Ethel Susan Jones Scholarship to support an MFA in Film Directing at UCLA has been a real honor.

Ilam is where my love for film first took root, so there's something special about being supported from the place that sparked it all. The scholarship has been essential in allowing me to live and be here, to fully throw myself into this period of learning and growth.

Together with Fulbright support, it's given me the stability to focus, experiment, and develop both technically and creatively. I feel incredibly lucky to be here, and genuinely excited for what's ahead.

Regina - UC Data Science doctoral student

In a word, these scholarships have given me hope.

Being an awardee gave me the opportunity to study what ails my grandmother, and to pursue a PhD contributing to research seeking to understand the mechanisms of this currently incurable disease. Moreover, the chance to pursue higher education, let alone in such a specialised field, was not something I ever envisioned for myself.

These awards opened doors to possibilities I had not begun to imagine, not only for myself, but for those like my grandmother living with rare ailments. If my journey can serve as any encouragement, I hope it shows that a PhD, and the impact it enables, is within reach for anyone willing to dream beyond their circumstances.

For me, what began as a deeply personal motivation has grown into a commitment to ensuring that others facing similar challenges might also have reason to hope, thanks to the support of these scholarships.

Freddie - UC Product Design & Mechanical Engineering student

The John Rutherford scholarship has had a truly profound impact, alleviating many of my worries about finances, and helping me to embrace opportunities that I might otherwise have disregarded due to the cost.

It has supported me in managing the demands of an Engineering conjoint degree whilst also enabling experiences beyond my core studies, such as a study tour to Southeast Asia.

Having the freedom to embrace more opportunities outside my core studies has not been something to take for granted, and is something I continue to be grateful for.

2024 UC Hiranga Scholarship

Jude - UC Health Sciences doctoral student

I am from the Philippines, and I grew up in a family that is service-oriented. Throughout the years, my expertise in development communication has drawn me to various community projects. These experiences and stories from the community led me to further explore and learn about community health workers in the Philippines for my PhD thesis.

With my co-scholars, we are immensely proud to be the recipients of this fantastic scholarship programme. The Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship programme allowed us to enjoy learning and exploring this beautiful country of New Zealand. Being away from our home countries, we appreciate the chance to meet remarkable people and see new places, which is a constant source of motivation. Indeed, these opportunities led to a genuine experience of whananungatanga on this personal journey at the University of Canterbury and the Garden City of Ōtautahi Christchurch.

I always remind myself that education is an invaluable gift. The Manaaki New Zealand Scholarship recognises this gift by promoting both learning and personal growth. To us recipients, the scholarship fosters deeper connections between New Zealand and its partner countries, and it is an unforgettable journey in our lives.

Luke - UC Mechanical Engineering student

The Outstanding Impact Scholarship has had an incredible impact in both my studies and university life at the University of Canterbury. From meeting incredible like-minded students, to seeing a rocket soar through the air, the scholarship opened many doors for me.

I was mentored by the Co-Founder of Dawn Aerospace, learning incredible wisdom and advice for my future engineering career. I also had gotten the opportunity to continue my impact with the scholarship now working as Kaitiaki Akonga Mentor for the Te Kau a Maui Scholarship program in 2026, and a Wellbeing Navigator for Student Wellbeing.

The support from the scholarship made my first year at university just a little easier, allowing me to access direct support with PALS, and have fantastically supportive student success coaches to help guide me through the year, with many success workshops facilitated by the coaches to allow us to understand ourselves better, and what it takes to succeed at UC.

Katie - UC Art History postgraduate student

Receiving the Penelope Wilson Art and Culture Internship Grant provided me with the opportunity to travel as part of my master’s degree in art history.

I used this scholarship to study objects up close at Te Papa and Auckland Museum, where I was able to meet the curators and collection managers, and gain a more in-depth understanding of the materialities of the nineteenth and twentieth-century handcrafted objects I am researching.

I am incredibly appreciative of the financial support and the opportunities this scholarship presented for my research. It feels particularly validating to have received an award specifically for the study of art history, and I am so grateful to the donors for providing me with the means to keep doing what I love.

Jordan - UC Electrical & Electronic Engineering student

The opportunity to be awarded the scholarships has meant everything to me. It was quite daunting initially to come to the University of Canterbury, and I carried a lot of anxiety about exploring a new environment and the financial responsibilities that come with it.

The scholarships significantly reduced the financial burden on my family, allowing me to focus entirely on my studies and fully immerse myself in the community at UC. Beyond the financial support, being selected for the scholarships has given me a lot of motivation. It drives me to work harder to prove that I am worthy of the support given to me, while also allowing me to experience life in an amazing and beautiful country.

Finn - UC Civil Engineering student

Receiving the Tuatara Structures scholarship has made a huge positive impact on my life, easing the financial burden associated with attending university so I can spend more time focusing on exceling in my studies and taking care of my wellbeing.

Receiving this scholarship has also made me realise the support I have behind me on my engineering journey, and motivates me to keep working hard so one day I can hopefully give back to the communities I work in. Thanks Tuatara Structures!
