Travel Grants

Some assistance with travel costs can be provided for eligible HDR candidates to meet with their supervisors and/or attend research professional development sessions. Travel assistance grants are only available to domestic (Australian or New Zealand citizens and some permanent residents), distance education, Commonwealth Funded HDR candidates. The grants are made available after the travel to attend a consultation with their supervisor and/or a training seminar has been undertaken. Full fee paying or fee waiver HDR candidates are not eligible to receive this funding. HDR candidates are encouraged to spend at least one day per session with their Supervisor and to attend up to three face-to-face research professional development events that might be offered by the Research Office or other CSU entities. Supervisor consultation should be linked with a research professional development event wherever possible. To assist eligible HDR candidates with some of the associated costs of travelling, the Research Office will provide one travel assistance grant per session. A Travel Grant Application needs to be completed.
