The Rotary National Science and Technology Forum

The Forum will be held in Auckland on the 12th – 26th January 2019. Students live in at O‘Rourke Hall, a University of Auckland Hall of Residence. Each Rotary district in New Zealand is allocated 22 places at the Forum. Students should emerge from the Forum with a better idea of the tertiary courses they wish to pursue and have a fuller appreciation of science and technology in the community. Applications must be lodged through a Rotary club.
Final selection by the district committee is based on academic achievement and personal qualities. It is expected that clubs will make a contribution towards the fees for their successful candidates. In some cases schools may also assist.
