Funding Opportunities

There will be no formal calls for internal Faculty funding during 2013. Staff are encouraged to use Research Professional to source funds to support research projects: www.researchprofessional.com

Should research staff require cash or in-kind contributions from the Faculty as part of an external funding grant, please contact Frank Marino, Associate Dean (Research) to discuss.

New Staff Establishment Grant

The purpose of the New Staff Establishment Grant is to support new staff to establish and continue their research career at CSU to contribute significantly to the development of the Faculty's research capacity.

To be eligible to apply for funding, applicants must have been awarded a doctorate, be employed within the Faculty of Education on a full time continuing basis, or at least a two-year contract in a 'research only' or 'teaching/research' position. Applications must be made within SIX months of commencing employment at CSU.

The New Staff Start Up fund can be expended in any way the staff member deems appropriate to support establishing their research career within CSU. This can include teaching, administrative or research assistance, travel costs, conference registration and attendance, and contribution to the purchase of necessary materials or equipment.
