PhD Scholarships for International Students
The Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship (AGRTPS) and the Flinders International Postgraduate Research Scholarship (FIPRS) are two prestigious and highly competitive scholarships available to international applicants. These scholarships are offered once each year, with applications typically closing in mid-June.
As part of your application, you will be required to prepare a brief research proposal (approximately 500 words) outlining the research area you intend to pursue and the proposed scope of your study.
Further information on the application process for a Higher Degree by Research (HDR) at Flinders University is available on the university website.
Prospective applicants with a strong publication record in high-quality journals and who meet the English language requirements of Flinders University are encouraged to contact me to discuss their proposed research project.
Postdoctoral Fellowships Opportunities
I am highly interested to host postdoctoral fellows in my research group to collaborate with our research team and to conduct high-quality and impactful research in design of electric machines. Interested applicants should contact me to discuss their research proposal and after approval can apply for Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA).
