Description
This is a one-off award intended for use by the recipient to support additional expenses directly related to their research undertaking. Expenses unrelated to the pursuit of research will not be covered (such as vehicle, medical costs etc.). Applicants must clearly state how their research will benefit from the supplement if awarded. Applicants should note that the committee will determine the amount awarded and that their decision is final.
Benefits
Up to $6,000.
The award may be paid as a fortnightly stipend (for the academic year only) or in a lump sum if the award is made for the purchase of equipment.
Eligibility
You must meet the following criteria:
- be currently enrolled in a research masters or doctoral program as an internal/on-campus student at one of Monash University’s Australian campuses;
- be registered with the Disability Liaison Unit or have appropriate medical documentation;
- hold a MGS, RTP Stipend, MDS or similar award that supports your living costs, as this is a supplementary top up scholarship only; and
- have a disability or long-term medical condition that has resulted in extra expenses during your Graduate Research studies.
Selection of the successful applicant will be based on the needs and academic performance of applicants. Selection will be undertaken by the Graduate Research Committee (GRC) Steering Committee.
