Co-Funded Industry Scholarship Scheme (CIS)
This scheme encourages industry collaboration through a new centrally funded research higher degree scholarship scheme. The Co-Funded Industry Scholarship (CIS) Scheme offers researchers the opportunity to apply for University funds to match funding they have secured from industry for a research higher degree scholarship. The CIS scheme will contribute an amount equal to the value of the industry funding, up to the value of $15,000 per annum. Successful applicants would be expected to have an industry agreement in place prior to the scholarship commencing.
Applications will open at the end of February, with a closing date of 31 August 2012.
