Higher Degree by Research scholarships

New students

Applications from new students for the RTP scholarship must follow the following steps.

1. Review the available projects linked above.
2. Email the Project Lead expressing your interest in the scholarship, detailing how your experience and skills align with the research project and attaching your CV.

The Project Lead will shortlist their preferred applicant and write them a Primary Reference in support of their application.

If you have not been successful as a preferred candidate for your chosen project, you will be notified by the project lead, at which point you are free to review and apply for other available projects.

3. Once you have your primary reference from a Project Lead, you will need to send the external referee template to an academic or professional referee to complete. All references are confidential and will not be viewed by the applicant and therefore, must be returned directly to the Graduate Research School at HDRSCH-applications@curtin.edu.au by the referee themselves.
4. Finally, you will need to submit an eApplication for admission into a Higher Degree by Research (HDR) course.

As part of your admission documents you will need to submit a RTP scholarship application form.

Current Curtin HDR students wishing to apply for the RTP Scholarship please see the scholarship webpage.

All Applications close 5.00pm WST 1^st September 2020.
