26 Indians receive scholarships from Australian HC Peter Varghese
With a steep rise in the number of Indian students seeking admission to Australia, students and researchers from diverse backgrounds have won awards to study in Australia.Twenty six Indian students, professionals and researchers received scholarships from Australian High Commissioner Peter Varghese Wednesday.
These include three prestigious Prime Minister Australia-Asia Awards.
"The Australia Awards facilitate the sharing of knowledge, strengthen mutual understanding between our two nations and build international networks, which continue long after the scholars have returned to India," Varghese said.
"Our education relationship, underpinned by people-to-people and institutional connections, is a crucial part of our broader Australia India strategic partnership," he added.
The awardees will undertake study or research at the vocational, postgraduate and postdoctoral level or undertake professional development across diverse fields such as sciences, biotechnology, medicine and environment among others.
