Radio 4EB FM Ethnic Scholarship

Since 2001, QUT and radio station 4EB have offered an annual Ethnic Radio Scholarship for Journalism study at QUT. The aim of the scholarship is to provide broadcast experience and study support to students working to enter the general Australian media workforce.

In 2008, two scholarships valued at $5000 will be offered. The scholarship are designed to cover HECS with the balance as a cash stipend. The scholarship is for one year's duration, though a student can reapply in the next round of offers to continue their studies. Applications close 4pm, Monday 21 December 2007, with the successful applicants announced in January.

The successful applicants must have at least one parent born outside of Australia and they will be asked to join 4EB as a part-time volunteer.
