School of Government graduate, Hannah Griffin, has been awarded a 2016 Fulbright Science and Innovation Graduate award.

Hannah studied a conjoint BCA/BSC in public policy, economics and environmental studies in 2013 and is a policy advisor at the Ministry for Business, Innovation and Employment.

She plans to use the scholarship to complete a Master of Public Administration specialising in Environmental Policy at the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at Syracuse University.

Victoria’s Vice-Provost (Research) Professor Kate McGrath says these awards are a fantastic opportunity for the award winners.

“On behalf of the University, I’d like to congratulate the seven winners from Victoria. Receiving a Fulbright New Zealand Award is the start of an exciting new chapter to their academic careers. Both the winning academics and graduates will not only be able to progress new areas of research, but will also be able to make the most of learning at highly ranked international institutions and be exposed to alternative thinking and trends. I’m sure the awards will open doors for the future."
