Tim Healey Memorial Scholarship

The Future Farm Industries Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) Board established the scholarship in 2013. A sub-committee of the AW Howard Memorial Trust has administered the program since 2014.

The scholarship represents the CRC and AW Howard Trust’s commitment to ongoing development of Australia’s farming systems. It is also a fitting legacy in memory of Dr Tim Healey’s contribution to this effort.

Eligibility

The post-graduate student must be studying in a field that benefits the future of Australian farming such as:

  • pastures
  • livestock management
  • farming systems
  • agronomy
  • farm business management
  • woody crops
  • on-farm biodiversity or
  • socio-economic aspects of farming.

Applications with benefits for the sustainability of agricultural systems or natural resource management benefits will be preferred.

  • currently hold, or been approved for, an existing base scholarship (such as an Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship (RTPS), formerly Australian Postgraduate Award (APA)), or an industry-based fund of similar merit
