Six students received ACC Scholarships for master's degrees in New Zealand, focusing on injury prevention and mental health.

The ACC Scholarship, a partnership between Universities New Zealand and the Accident Compensation Corporation, has awarded scholarships to six students for master's degrees at New Zealand institutions. Two full scholarships of $15,000 each went to Hana Sikma and Merrick Rodrigues, with four partial scholarships of $7,500 to Merope Griffin, Luke Hollis, Reghan Laurie, and Adrian Pretorius. Their research addresses topics such as emergency response times for elderly fall victims, the impact of pre-existing disabilities on injury recovery, and mental health services for dairy farmers.
