Three remarkable scholars from across Australia—Lillian Ireland (Tasmania), Emerald Gaydon (Queensland), and Sam Goldberg (New South Wales)—have been selected for the prestigious Rhodes Scholarship.

Established over a century ago by Cecil Rhodes in 1902, the Rhodes Scholarship is not only the oldest but also one of the most esteemed international scholarships globally. It carefully chooses scholars based on their academic excellence, intellectual prowess, character integrity, commitment to making a positive impact, and leadership capabilities.

This fully-funded postgraduate award provides a transformative opportunity for talented young individuals worldwide, enabling them to pursue their studies at the University of Oxford.

After some two years of consultation, co-design and collaboration, we’re delighted to announce that the feature-laden is now up and running (literally).
