We are proud to support the regions in which we operate, Māori, Pacifica and Woman into Engineering as our values are “We are stronger Together” to “Unlock Brilliance”. Worley NZ are providing three scholarships to students who are New Zealand Citizens or Permanent Residents currently studying a Bachelor of Engineering (Hons) OR enrolled to start the in the year 2023. Scholarships will be awarded to students who are committing to study as a full-time engineering student in one of the following disciplines:

• Chemical, Process & Materials
• Civil / Structural
• Mechanical
• Mechatronics
• Electrical & Electronics

The Scholarships will have a maximum value of $5,000 and will be paid in annual instalments and pro-rated dependent on where you are in your educational learning. This will be subject to your continued passing of your engineering courses. Successful candidates may be given the opportunity to undertake professional work experience at Worley on completion of their third year of study. Our scholarship winners are often given the opportunity to join us as a graduate engineer after completion of their studies. Preference will be given to woman, maori, pacifica applicants or those who (pre study) lived in one of the smaller regions in which we operate – Whangarei, Taranaki, Hawkes Bay and Christchurch.

Another Worley value is that we will “Rise to the Challenge” and Scholarship recipients, as well as any additional exceptional candidates, will be appointed a mentor from the Worley Graduate Development Program to support you throughout your time at university.
