HRINZ Postgraduate Scholarships
The Human Resources Institute of New Zealand (HRINZ) has made a commitment to work more closely with the academic community in New Zealand by offering Postgraduate Scholarships to students completing postgraduate study and research in HR Management.
Since 2005, HRINZ has offered up to five scholarships per annum to full or part time students studying HR Management at a postgraduate level.
HRINZ has deferred offering Scholarships for the 2012 year and is currently reviewing the total package for postgraduate research conducted. The HRINZ Research and Publications Committe will undertake the review, define the future criteria for research topics and funding applied.
