Funding for postgraduate students

Well- conceived research projects that are aligned with the key research areas outlined in the ‘Australia’s Wet Tropics, An outstanding learning landscape’ document and which demonstrate scientific rigour and innovative research will be viewed favourably.

Funding of up to $4,000 is available for PhD and masters research projects, and up to $1,500 for honours projects.
