PRSS Conference Travel Funds

Objectives

 The Postgraduate Research Student Support (PRSS) Scheme is a centrally funded initiative to provide eligible postgraduate researchers with the opportunity to apply for funding to assist in presenting their research at international conferences outside of Australia.

 By enhancing opportunities for student mobility, and for professional participation and practice in international communities, the scheme encourages both global focus and global exposure for student researchers, and facilitates the deepening and broadening of those researchers’ international links and experiences.

In 2012 eligible candidates are able to apply for a maximum of $3,300 to present at conferences being held between 1 January 2012 and 31 December 2012.
