​Hyderabad: The University of New South Wales, Australia (UNSW Australia) has strengthened its relationship with India with the announcement of a new scholarship programme targeting bright Indian students who may not have the financial capacity to attend a top 50 university in the world.

Under the Future of Change scholarship programme, 10 lucky recipients will receive $10,000 each and one student will have their full tuition fees paid for. The program is exclusively for Indian citizens, living in India.

President and Vice Chancellor of UNSW Australia, Professor Ian Jacobs, announced the Future of Change scholarship program at the Nehru Memorial Museum. He was on a three city tour of the country to strengthen education, research and knowledge exchange with India.

“India’s higher education gross enrolment ratio stands at 18% in comparison to the OECD average of 27%,” Professor Jacobs said. “Students are looking for opportunities to study abroad and India is forecast to have the world’s fastest growing mobile student outflows by 2020.”
