ANZ Singapore-New Zealand Scholarship Program - Careers

ANZ Singapore-New Zealand Scholarship Program

The ANZ Singapore-New Zealand Scholarship Program offers students from Singapore the opportunity to study and work in a different part of the Asia Pacific region, gaining unique experiences and insights to build on their global view of the world.

Students with aspirations to work in banking and finance will benefit from understanding New Zealand’s economic innovation and creativity, as well as achieving quality standard of living for its people.

Apart from the opportunity to study and live in a new culture and business environment, the scholarship also provides a paid internship with ANZ New Zealand, one of New Zealand’s largest banking organisations.

ANZ’s aspiration is to be a super regional bank, connecting consumer and investment businesses across Australia, New Zealand and Asia Pacific.

The scholarship program will provide undergraduate or post-graduate students with the opportunity to develop their potential and equip them with skills to be regional leaders.

Scholarship award and what it covers

This program is jointly funded between ANZ New Zealand and ANZ Singapore. Each ANZ country will contribute two scholarships per annum. Each student will receive a sum of NZD15,000 under the scholarship. The scholarship is for one semester or up to five months per term.

Internship opportunity

ANZ will offer each student a three-month paid internship. The internship can be taken before or after the scholarship semester or term, but the preference is for the internship to be taken after the semester or term, close to the graduating year.

Employment

The internship agreement will include a first right for ANZ to employ the student upon graduation, subject to the availability of suitable positions.

ANZ reserves the right to request for the full amount of the scholarship to be returned to ANZ if the student defaults on the scholarship agreement.
