Australian Development Scholarships (ADS) are a bilateral program within the Australian scholarships program. Australian Development Scholarships are a highly valued form of development cooperation that aims to contribute to the long term development needs of Australia's partner countries to promote growth and stability. They provide opportunities for people from developing countries to undertake full time undergraduate or postgraduate study in Australia. Fields of study are targeted to address agreed priority human resource and development needs of recipient countries, in line with Australia's bilateral aid program. Australian Development Scholarships equip scholars with the skills and knowledge to drive change and influence the development outcomes of their own country through obtaining tertiary qualifications at participating Australian higher education institutions and technical colleges. Scholarship holders are required to return to their country of citizenship for two years after they have completed their studies to contribute to the development of their country.
