About this scholarship

 

Each year the ANU College of Engineering, Computing and Cybernetics may offer an award known as the Natasha Linard Scholarship for Women in Engineering & Technology.

The objective of the Award is to support women who are undertaking their third (or later) year of an undergraduate program within the ANU College of Engineering, Computing and Cybernetics. The award aims to help build the recipient's leadership skills in technology, business and community areas, and to develop a mentoring relationship with prominent professionals in the private and public sectors.

Funding for this Award has been provided by the Linard Family and a range of donors, including the ANU College of Engineering, Computing and Cybernetics in memory of Dr Natasha Linard, a member of the first undergraduate engineering intake at the ANU. AS one of the first women to graduate with an ANU Bachelor of Engineering and subsequently with an ANU PhD in Engineering, Dr Natasha Linard was and continues to be, an outstanding and inspiring role model for women engineers. The scholarship will continue her dedication to mentoring female students and early professionals.

Recipients of the Natasha Linard Scholarship for Women in Engineering & Technology will carry her name with pride and, like her, will no doubt become prominent members of the engineering profession.
