The Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering (ATSE) and Snowy Hydro are pleased to announce an expansion of the Elevate: Boosting diversity in STEM scholarship program.
Snowy Hydro is providing funding for two additional undergraduate students to join the program and receive financial, study and wellbeing and career development support for the full length of their degrees, starting in 2025.
Elevate supports women and non-binary people to study science, technology, enginery and mathematics with a focus on candidates from rural and remote areas and other underrepresented communities.
With foundational funding by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources, Elevate is providing hundreds of scholarships to university students through a $41.2 million program to 2032.
ATSE is excited to welcome Snowy Hydro, one of Australia’s most well-known and well-loved engineering organisations, as a co-investor in the Elevate program. The scholars supported by Snowy Hydro will have access to the professional engineering mentors, professional development, 24-hour psychosocial wellbeing support and financial support available to all Elevate scholars.
ATSE CEO Kylie Walker said, “ATSE is proud to partner with Snowy Hydro in our common goal of shaping, supporting and skilling up the clean energy workforce of the future. We are excited to be working together to bring new people into STEM at a time when growing a diverse workforce is more important than ever.”
