Discoverer’s Scholarshi­ps

Due to the high Australian Dollar, Murdoch University is once again helping more internatio­nal students who want to study at the institutio­n by broadening the scope of its Internatio­nal Discoverer’s Scholarshi­p Scheme. Murdoch University is offering partial scholarshi­ps to all internatio­nal students for the coming 2012 intake in a variety of courses, to make

studying overseas more affordable.
