The
main awards available to research students are Australian Postgraduate Awards
(APA), and Monash Graduate Scholarships (MGS). Graduates or graduands of any
Australian or overseas university are eligible to apply for the MGS, but
Australian Postgraduate Awards are available only to Australian citizens or
persons with permanent resident status.
Applications for APA or MGS should be lodged at the Research Training and
Support Branch office by October 31, each year.
Further inquiries should be directed to Research Training and Support Branch,
telephone (03) 9905 3009, Monash University, Clayton, Victoria
3168.
Students with family and/or work commitments can access honours and higher
degree research programs on a part-time basis. Part-time scholarships are also
available.
The university aims to introduce a scholarship for fee-paying postgraduate
courses in 1999. Students planning to do these courses and who think they may
need fee relief, can contact the Monash Postgraduate Association on
9905 3196 for details about the proposed scholarships.
For more information on all of these issues, contact your faculty's
postgraduate coordinator or the Research, Training and Support Branch on
9905 2059.
There
are a limited number of HECS exemption scholarships available on a first-come
first-served basis to the following postgraduate students: Australian
Postgraduate Award (APA) and Monash Graduate Scholarships (MGS) holders;
full-time and part-time candidates for the degree of PhD and research masters
students (this does not include masters qualifying students). HECS exemption
scholarships are awarded on a yearly basis.
Further information on HECS exemptions is available from Research Training and
Support Branch, Monash University, Clayton, Victoria 3168.
The above two schemes, formerly the John Crawford Scholarship Scheme, are open to applicants from participating developing countries. These scholarships will cover course fees and may provide living and other allowances, including travel. Further details and application forms may be obtained from any Australian Diplomatic Mission or the Australian Education Centre accredited to countries in which scholarships are available. Application forms for the above schemes are not available from Monash University.
This
second category of scholarships will meet tuition full-fee costs only; no
stipend or allowances are payable. International students may, however, apply
for an OPRS simultaneously with an MGS scholarship. Like all other scholarships
applied for at Monash University, the OPRS are awarded strictly on the basis of
academic achievement. It should also be noted that only students whose research
interests coincide with the university's current research concentrations will
be eligible for nomination by institutions for these scholarships.
Further information on these awards is available from the Research Training and
Support Branch, Monash University.
