Griffith University in Australia is excited to announce the opening of applications for its prestigious International Postgraduate Research Scholarship for the academic years 2024 – 2025. This opportunity is designed for ambitious and exceptional students eager to pursue a postgraduate research degree at Griffith University. Available through the University’s Continuous Scholarship Round, this scholarship offers a remarkable chance for doctoral and research master’s candidates to have their tuition fees fully covered. Doctoral students may receive up to three years of tuition fee support, while research master’s candidates can benefit from up to two years of funding.
Sponsored by Griffith University itself, the scholarship aims to alleviate the financial burden for international postgraduate students by covering the full tuition fees. In addition to this generous support, the scholarship package also includes Overseas Student Health Cover for both the scholarship recipient and any dependents, ensuring peace of mind throughout the scholarship period. For doctoral candidates, this means securing 57 months of health coverage to encompass both their program’s duration and the thesis evaluation phase. Scholarship beneficiaries will enjoy health coverage for the first 42 months, with the obligation to extend this coverage for the remaining time at their own expense upon accepting the scholarship offer.
Eligibility for this prestigious scholarship requires applicants to be international students, as defined by Griffith University’s criteria, and to embark on or be currently enrolled in a Higher Degree by Research (HDR) program supported by the GUIPRS. Prospective scholars must possess a Bachelor’s Degree with First Class Honours or its equivalent and meet other specific academic and residency conditions outlined by Griffith University. The application process is streamlined and accessible online, with separate instructions for current research candidates. Applicants are encouraged to apply early, as they are limited to two applications within five years. While the application deadline has not been specified, interested individuals are urged to visit Griffith University’s official website for comprehensive details and to begin their journey towards an enriching postgraduate research experience at one of Australia’s leading universities.
