The AusIMM New Zealand Branch Education Endowment Trust (EET) Scholarships are offered to support students in New Zealand pursuing studies related to the minerals industry. The EET was established with initial funding from proceeds generated by the Auckland PACRIM Congress in 1995. Notably, the EET is distinct from the Education Endowment Fund (EEF) managed by AusIMM in Australia due to tax regulations that make New Zealand students ineligible for the Australian EEF.

Since its establishment, the EET has awarded 119 scholarships, totaling $421,810, to students enrolled at New Zealand universities. More detailed information about the EET can be found in its Trust Deed.

Eligibility Criteria for the AusIMM New Zealand Branch EET Scholarships include:

• A clear mention of the title and location of your research project.
• A concise summary of your research objectives within 300 words, elucidating its relevance to the minerals industry.
• Submission of a brief curriculum vitae (CV) featuring a photograph, as well as your academic record up to the present (an uncertified copy of your academic record is acceptable).
• Information about the degree or course in which you are currently enrolled.
• Disclosure of any additional funding you are currently receiving or have applied for.
• Your application should be signed by either your Supervisor or the Chairperson of your Department/School.

The AusIMM New Zealand Branch EET Scholarships serve as an avenue to support students engaged in research aligned with the minerals industry and contribute to the advancement of knowledge in this field.
