Scholarship history

The first scholarships were awarded in 2003 at the University of Canterbury. From 2023 onwards, scholarships were offered at both University of Canterbury and University of Auckland.

Scholarships awarded up until 2020 may have been multi-year scholarships, with recipients listed below in the first year that they started receiving the award. Scholarships from 2021 onwards were single-year awards.
