Are you a woman pursuing a career in a male dominated field? Why not apply for our annual scholarship

The 2021 “Breaking the Barriers” Scholarship supports women in male dominated fields. If you are one of these women, or identify as one, and are:

  • within your second year or beyond of study in a male dominated field; or
  • working for at least twleve months within a male dominated field with the intention to progress your career within the nominated field;

the Women’s Network Hunter encourage you to submit an application.

Applicants are invited to discuss what the scholarship would mean to them as well as a bit about their experiences and aims in their selected industry.

Presentation of the Scholarship will offer a platform of recognition for our scholarship recepients and supporters at our annual Scholarship event.
