Opportunities
Post-doctoral fellowships are
advertised on individual research group webpages when we have them. In addition, Postdoctoral Fellowships
for both Australian and international applicants are available through
a number of sources. These take a bit of planning, so interested applicants
should contact prospective research groups 2-3 months before the deadlines.
- Australian Research Council
Postdoctoral Fellowships are 3 or 4 year fully funded fellowships
for early career researchers. Applications for these are due in March
each year, with the position beginning the following calendar year.
- Australian Research Council
Super Science Fellowships is a new scheme for junior researchers.
The Australian Government is creating 100 new Fellowships in targeted
areas such as nanotechnology. Full details of this scheme are due to
be released in September 2009.
- Australian Research Council
Advanced Research Fellowships are 5 year fully funded fellowships
for researchers with a few years of postdoctoral experience. Applications
for these are due in March each year, with the position beginning the
following calendar year.
- Australian Research Council
Future Fellowships
are for mid-career researchers, providing 4-6 year positions with guaranteed
research support. The Australian government is creating 1,000 of these
new Fellowships over a 5 year period. Applications are due in Sept/Oct
each year, although expressions of interest are due several months beforehand.
Some researchers visit us for
scientific collaborations. There are exchange agreements between the Australian
Academy of Science and similar bodies in several other countries. Funding
from such agreements is possible, but far from certain, and takes time
to organise.
