AustCham China Scholarship

Posted by on April 5th, 2011 · Uncategorized

Since 2005, AustCham Beijing has been providing young Australians with internship and career development opportunities across Greater China. To date, over 35 individuals have gained valuable work experience in China with many going on to take on management roles within their respective companies.

AustCham China Scholarship is a comprehensive career development platform aimed at fostering the next generation of Sino-Australian business leaders. Each year the scholarship brings to China 15 of Australia‘s top graduates from across a range of academic disciplines to undertake a full time, 9 month graduate traineeship. During the traineeship, the scholarship recipients receive return flights to China, Mandarin language training, access to the Chamber‘s professional business network, mentoring and sponsorship to attend business and industry seminars. At the end of the traineeship, exceptional individuals may be offered full time positions in the company.

The purpose of the Scholarship is to prepare Australia‘s future business leaders with the skills and experience necessary to navigate and thrive in the changing Asian marketplace.

The AustCham China Scholarship‘s corporate partners represent a range of multinational, fortune 500 and ASX listed companies. The corporate partners who take on scholarship recipients in traineeship positions, offer a unique China based environment in which to experience working within an internationally distinguished firm. The corporate sponsors; Ausenco, Blue Scope Steel, Cochlear, ERM, GNS China, HASSELL, Navitas China, Telstra, Westpac, WesTrac and Woods Bagot have a keen interest in China and recognise the importance of developing the next generation of Sino-Australian business leaders in their fields.
