Specialist insurer Club Marine and the Australian Maritime College (AMC) at Launceston are offering scholarships for students of marine engineering.

Club Marine Victoria State Manager Ross Lambrick says the one-year scholarships will be awarded to students intending to study at the National Centre for Maritime Engineering and Hydrodynamics towards a Bachelor of Engineering – Naval Architecture in ocean engineering or marine and offshore engineering.

Mr Lambrick says the scholarships will assist students “who may otherwise have difficulty in pursuing a tertiary qualification without such financial support”.
