Scholarships only appear on the Scholarships website.

Understanding scholarships

Scholarships pages help prospective and current students understand whether they're eligible for scholarships and how to apply.

There are 3 types of scholarships on the UQ scholarships website:

  1. Research – associated with a PhD or MPhil.
  2. External – externally funded (in full or part).
  3. General – any scholarship that is not a research or external scholarship.

Creating a new scholarship

Research scholarships

To create a research scholarship:

  1. Follow the scholarships author guide (PDF, 1.2 MB) to prepare your content.
  2. Send your content to graduateschool@uq.edu.au

External scholarships

To create an external scholarship:

  1. Follow the scholarships author guide (PDF, 1.2 MB) to prepare your content.
  2. Send your content to ugscholarships@uq.edu.au

General scholarships

If your scholarship is not a research or external scholarship, you can create it in Drupal.

To create a new scholarship:

  1. Prepare your content by following the scholarships author guide (PDF, 1.2 MB) to complete a general scholarship content brief (DOCX, 93 KB).
  2. Once you log into Drupal, hover over 'Content' in the Drupal menu then select 'Add content' > 'Scholarship'.
  3. Complete all required fields, following the guide and copying and pasting content from your completed content brief.
  4. Select a workflow status and save.

Choose the appropriate workflow status: 

  • Draft if you're still working on the page and want to save an unpublished version. 
  • Needs review if you want to send the page to another editor for internal review. Enter the email address of anyone you want to notify (select 'Add another item' to add multiple recipients). To provide context, add a brief note to the 'Revision log message' field at the top right of the page.
  • Ready for publishing if you want the page to be reviewed by a publisher and published to live. This should trigger a notification to the site publishers, so they'll know the page is ready for review. To provide context, add a brief note to the 'Revision log message' field at the top right of the page.

Site builders and publishers can save pages as Published or Archived.
