Northcott's PhD Scholarship in the Disability Sector
The Northcott PhD Scholarship (for commencement in 2013) is an exciting opportunity available to a scholar who wishes to complete research in the disability sector. The scholarship is open to those with a demonstrable commitment to the sector; being a client or employee of Northcott is not a pre-requisite. The scholarship is available for three years at a rate of $29,000 per year tax free, approximately equivalent to that offered by the related National Health and Medical Research Council postgraduate scholarships scheme. Northcott Disability Services is an innovative and dynamic not-for-profit organisation that provides support to 10,000 people with a broad range of disabilities and their families and carers across NSW and the ACT by offering a variety of services to promote a genuinely inclusive society. To further strengthen this commitment Northcott is supportive of continued learning and is pleased to offer the Northcott PhD Scholarship for 2013.
Fulbright Professional Scholarship
Fulbright Professional Scholarships are available to Australian citizens, in junior to mid career positions, poised for advancement to a senior role from the private, public and not-for-profit sectors (outside academe), or junior to middle level academics whose professional focus is industry related and whose research and sharing of results within the industry is clearly outlined. As a guideline, Professional Scholars are generally aged between 30-45 years. The scholarship supports a 3-4 month program of professional development in the United States.
Application proposals must include an educational component (such as a short-course and/or research) and identify a potential U.S. host institution at which the applicant would spend a significant period of their scholarship. It may also involve other forms of professional experience including visits to relevant organisations. While the program may include attending a conference, this does not fulfil the educational requirements of the scholarship. The Professional Scholarship does not fund postgraduate (i.e. Masters or PhD) study programs.
