The Cambridge Australia Trust consists of the Australian Committee and the State Committee chairs. The Australian Committee comprises a Chair, the Deputy Chair together with an Honorary Treasurer, an Honorary Secretary, an Honorary Registrar, the British High Commissioner and the State Committee Chairs

CAT carries out four main activities:

  1. Fundraising and administration of funds
  2. Advertising of CAT scholarships
  3. Selection of Scholars via the Selection Committee, half nominated by CAT and half by the ANU, and appointed by the Council of ANU.
  4. Keeping a Registry of scholars

CAT meets each year for an Annual General Meeting to review its activities and finances, and to agree on the most effective way to achieve its objectives.

The CAT Secretariat is currently located in Canberra.

The State Committees are central to providing a point of social contact between supported students and CAT, and through advertising the existence of CAT scholarships, and to fund raising.


Acknowledgement: The Trust is grateful to The Australian Academy of the Humanities for providing administrative facilities to the Trust.
