Endeavour International Postgraduate Research Scheme (EIPRS) and La Trobe University Fee Remission Research Scholarship (LTUFRRS)
The EIPRS and LTUFRRS awards are open to international students who are seeking to undertake a higher degree by research at a Master’s or PhD level. The EIPRS are funded by the Australian Government and approximately 300 scholarships are awarded nationally each year. In 2008 40 LTUFRRS will be available for commencing research candidates.
Both scholarships are awarded on the basis of academic merit and are designed to cover tuition fees for a period of two years for a Master’s by Research degree and three years for a Doctoral (PhD) degree.
The closing date for these scholarships is 30 September 2008 for students who wish to begin their studies the following year.
Scholarship recipients must be ready to commence no later than 30 June in the year following application. Please note also that scholarship offers will be made conditional on evidence of English language proficiency.
International students may apply for this scholarship when they apply for admission to La Trobe University. A separate application form is not required, although applicants should note that they may be required to submit further documentation on request (e.g. thesis chapter/s in English translation).
Applicants who are currently studying on a scholarship sponsored by AusAID or have just completed study on such a scholarship are NOT ELIGIBLE to apply for the EIPRS.
Applicants for the EIPRS are also advised to apply for a La Trobe Postgraduate Research Scholarship (LTUPRS).
