About the Scholarship:
The University of Adelaide was granted 150 hectares of property in Bedford Park in 1960 with the purpose of establishing a second campus. This was the beginning of the history of Flinders University, which began in 1960. The planning process began in 1961, and construction began in 1962. When the Australian Labor Party (ALP) won the State election in 1965, they made the decision to establish the Bedford Park campus as an independent university. The University Act of 1966 was signed into law on July 1, 1966, officially establishing Flinders University, which was named after Matthew Flinders, a prominent British cartographer and navigator. Classes commenced on the 7th of March, 1966, with only 400 students and 90 members of faculty. As the university’s first chancellor, Sir Mark Mitchell was appointed, and as its first vice-chancellor, Peter Karmel was appointed.
