NCP Mobility Grants

Under the NCP Mobility Program, funding is provided to the University to support specific projects. Most of these are run through our faculties and schools.

  • short-term study 
  • practicums
  • clinical placements
  • internships/mentorships
  • short-term research.

The study undertaken overseas needs to be a mandatory course requirement or study you can credit towards your degree.
