Postgraduate Research Students

ARC supports postgraduate training with stipends available through Linkage Projects (APAIs), ARC Centres of Excellence (APACs), and Discovery Projects. International opportunities for postgraduate researchers are also offered through Linkage International awards and project support is offered through Discovery Indigenous Researchers Development.

However, postgraduate students are not normally eligible to apply for funding: applications seeking support for research training must be submitted by eligible researchers and research teams. The exception to this is Discovery Indigenous Researchers Development: eligible applicants under this program include postgraduate research students.

For Funding Rules of programs which fund research training opportunities:

• Linkage Projects: Australian Postgraduate Award Industry (APAI)
• ARC Centres of Excellence: Australian Postgraduate Awards Centres (APAC)
• Discovery Projects
• Discovery Indigenous Researchers Development
• Linkage International Fellowships
