A focus on research of an international quality and the fostering of an outstanding research culture have positioned UWA as one of the best universities in Australia and in the top 150 in the world.

Further information

The UWA Research Development Award replaces the UWA Research Grants scheme.

Previous award recipients

The UWA Research Development Award scheme is designed to provide an opportunity for early-career researchers to develop skills required for submitting grant applications and research plans.

These skills would be built upon for future research projects and to build track records for external grant competitiveness.

Grants are awarded for one year only. A maximum of $30,000 can be awarded, although up to an additional $14,500 is available for teaching relief.

Closing date

The scheme is now closed but will reopen in 2010.
