The Pacific Health Research Masters Scholarship provides up to $20,000 towards one year of personal support, plus tuition fees and a $1,000 tikanga allowance, for students completing the research component of a master's degree in any discipline whose proposed research programme will contribute to improving health and economic outcomes for Pacific peoples. Working expenses are not included in this award. Applicants must be a New Zealand citizen or hold residency in New Zealand and be of indigenous Pacific descent. Most successful applicants are enrolled full-time for a master's degree; however, we do consider applications from students who are enrolled part-time. Students who have yet to enroll for their proposed course of study, but they intend to do so, can also apply. During the tenure of the scholarship, the student's only activity must be the conduct of research and the preparation of a thesis or dissertation. If they are undertaking courses involving the completion of papers only, they won't be eligible for this scholarship. Applicants must submit evidence of collaboration/support. They will need to provide letters of support from supervisor(s) stating their supervisory and resource arrangements during the tenure of the proposed award; a JP-certified copy of the applicant's academic transcript or professional qualifications; letters of support from any individuals or organisations who are contributing their time but are not receiving payment; any relevant letters of collaboration to support the applicant's application; and Memoranda of Understanding (MOUs) or letters of support for any individuals not employed by the applicant's host organisation and will receive a salary or budget through this career development award (if within the award's specific budget allowances).
