What does healthy Country sound like? (PhD Scholarship)

The specific aims of this project will be guided by the student's interest.

You'll receive a stipend of $32,192 per annum for a maximum duration of three and a half years while undertaking a QUT PhD. The duration includes an extension of up to six months if approved for your candidature. This is a full-time, tax-exempt rate which will index annually.

You will receive a tuition fee offset, covering the cost of your tuition fees for the first four full-time equivalent years of your doctoral studies.
