This scholarship is named in memory of Ian Campbell Cocks (1938-1997) whose contribution to South Australian tourism, the wine industry and commerce was highly regarded.
This scholarship is to foster innovation in the Wine Industry through strategic and applied research, and to cultivate a research culture in undergraduates in the wine-related teaching and research disciplines and areas within the School of Agriculture, Food & Wine at the University of Adelaide.
The Scholarship will be available to a student enrolling in an Honours degree in wine research at the University of Adelaide. Both midyear intake and February intake students will be eligible.
The recipient will be required to carry out a research project (minimum of 12 credit points) under the direction of an academic staff member in a wine related teaching and research discipline and area within the School of Agriculture, Food and Wine. The research topic will be determined on an annual basis and it is expected that the research will be undertaken in consultation with an industry partner who may contribute in-kind support to the project.
The successful applicant will be selected on academic achievement, technical knowledge and communication skills.
The value of the scholarship is $10,000 of which the student will receive $9,000, and $1,000 will go to the teaching and research discipline area in the School of Agriculture, Food & Wine as a contribution to the maintenance costs of the research project.
The successful applicant will be required to remain enrolled on a full time or part time basis and to make satisfactory academic progress.
By every measure, the University of Adelaide—a member of Australia’s prestigious Group of Eight research-intensive universities—stands tall among the world’s leading institutions of learning and innovation. The clearest indication of this is our consistently high rating by the most respected international assessment bodies: QS World University Rankings, Times Higher Education and Shanghai Jiao Tong’s Academic Rankings of World Universities (ARWU). All consider us one of the top 1% of universities worldwide, and the top university in our state.
We’re equally proud of the fact that the vast majority of our research is rated ‘above or well above world standard’ by the Australian Research Council’s Excellence in Research Australia program. We count among our distinguished alumni: five Nobel Laureates; over 100 Rhodes Scholars, including Australia’s first Indigenous recipient; and Australia’s first female prime minister and Supreme Court judge. Many of our staff and teachers are internationally recognised leaders in their fields. And we attract a diverse student body of over 27,000 from more than 90 countries.
The University is an international institution that distinctively embraces the ideal of the research university, where the excitement, vitality and passion of the search for new knowledge is one in which all students participate; as an enlightened and tolerant community where able students can find support, whatever their background or circumstances; and as a place where the Kaurna people, original custodians of the land on which the campuses now rest, are acknowledged and their culture respected. The University of Adelaide draws strength from its founding values as it fulfils its future research and teaching aspirations.
