The Livestock Improvement Doctoral Studentship Programme
The Doctoral Studentship Programme seeks top PhD (and possibly Masters) students who potentially could fulfil key science roles within our organisation.
Successful candidates are offered an internship with us for up to a year then begin postgraduate studies – with our full support (financial, academic, mentoring).
When they’ve finished their studies, a relevant, full time position will be made available. In return for this support, the successful candidate will be bonded on a year-for-year basis.

This scholarship is named after one of the most innovative bovine geneticists and reproductive biologists in the world. Dr Shannon joined us in the mid-1950s and made many world-breaking discoveries of great value to the New Zealand dairy industry.
Scholarships consist of one-off grants of $5,000 for students in their fourth (Honours) year or up to $10,000 for masters students.
Applications are advertised in September each year and close on 28 November.
