Postgraduates seek better income support
Tim Dodd, The Australian
Postgraduate students are calling for more government income support to put them on a par with undergraduates, who have wider access to schemes such as Austudy and the Youth Allowance.
In a new paper the Council of Australian Postgraduate Associations says that income support for postgraduates is “highly limited” and opening full access would help in “promoting social mobility for low-income Australians”.
