PhD Study Opportunities

Are you interested in Graduate Research?  Explore some of the PhD Study Opportunities at UNSW Canberra.  We offer a diverse range of Scholarships Opportunities to domestic and international students to suit you and your situation.

Scholarships of $35,000 (AUD) are available for PhD applicants who achieved H1 (High Distinction) in their undergraduate program and/or have completed a Masters by Research.

I joined UNSW Canberra since 2016 as a postdoctoral researcher working on tropical cyclones and extreme weather. Right now, I am an ARC DECRA Fellow and Lecturer in School of Science at UNSW Canberra
