The Professor Anna Stewart Scholarship Program
Supporting First Nation PhD candidates
These top-up Scholarships honour Professor Anna Stewart, a highly respected and pioneering researcher and former Head of the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Griffith University. Professor Stewart made lasting contributions to criminology, particularly in using government data to understand complex social issues like child safety, family violence, and mental health. She was deeply committed to mentoring students and advancing the field of justice research.
