Great Artesian Basin Scholarship in the water resource management

The PhD top-up scholarships are intended to supplement the funding of primary scholarship holders who intend to conduct innovative research that will make a contribution to the management of the GAB. The GABCC welcomes applications from a variety of disciplines including science and engineering, economics and social science. Applicants are encouraged to review the GABCC’s Research Prospectus for the GAB prior to applying for the top-up scholarship. Projects should address priority research questions identified in the Prospectus. Applications are accepted at any time.
