ARC PhD Stipend Research Scholarship

Updated: about 8 hours ago
Location: Darling Heights, QUEENSLAND
Deadline: 30 Apr 2024

The primary objective of this scholarship is to drive the development of innovative semiconductor micro/nanostructures using cutting-edge MEMS/NEMS techniques. The intended application is to create highly sensitive sensors capable of weighing chemical species at the atomic mass unit level, detecting forces as small as zepto-newtons, and gauging various other physical parameters. These advanced devices hold potential for monitoring structural health and environmental conditions in space, ensuring extended operational lifetimes.
Value
  • Stipend (living allowance), valued at $35,000 per annum, tax free.
  • Successful international applicants will receive tuition fees for a period of 6 semesters, full-time equivalent, paid by the UniSQ.
  • The maximum period of the award is three years. Periods of study already undertaken towards the program will be deducted from the period of tenure

Eligibility

To be eligible applicants must:

  • have a Bachelor’s degree with First Class Honours or Second Class Honours (Division A) at an Australian University, or equivalent level;
  • be eligible to be enrolled full-time on-campus in the PhD program at USQ; 
  • be an international student, or an Australian or New Zealand citizen or Australian permanent resident;

How to apply

To apply, please ensure you have digital copies of the below information:

  • Curriculum vitae;
  • Preliminary Research Thesis Topic Proposal (DOC 48KB)
  • Education qualifications (testamur and academic transcripts for all undergraduate and postgraduate awards)
  • List of any research presentations and/or publications
  • Documentation confirming citizenship
  • Evidence of English-language proficiency

If you are interested in pursuing this topic, please forward enquires and CV to:
Associate Professor Toan Dinh
