The aim of the scholarship is to provide financial support to a student from a rural or regional area who is beginning the Bachelor of Science programme (Palaeontology). One scholarship will be offered annually, contingent upon funding.
In 2018, in honour of the 30th anniversary of palaeontology at Flinders University, the student-run Flinders University Palaeontology Society established the Flinders University Palaeontology Scholarship through fundraising efforts.
