Calling all globetrotters!
Can't quite fit a full semester exchange into your program? Found a great opportunity overseas but can't afford to get there? Applications are now open for the brand new HASS Globetrotters Grant, for HASS students wishing to travel overseas for an extra-curricular opportunity that enhances your employability.
There is no better way to develop many of the qualities that employers expect than to experience the world beyond your own environment - it helps you build confidence, resilience and experience new things that might help you realise what career prospects are available to you. We want to support students who show initiative to seek out extra-curricular international opportunities that are a bit ‘out of the ordinary’. This could include but is not limited to:
- Conferences
- Leadership programs
- Research programs
- Professional development workshops
- Internships or field experience
Funding is available for undergraduate and postgraduate masters level HASS students for up to $1000. View the guidelines to find out if you're eligible and how to apply.
Make sure you read the Globetrotters guidelines and the guide to getting the most out of your international experience before you apply!

Applications are open for 2019 and will be assessed on a rolling basis.
If you have any questions, please contact Jackie Fuller, Project Officer (Employability), HASS Student Futures via: studentfutures@hass.uq.edu.au.
