PhD Scholarship Opportunities

Australian Government Research Training Program Scholarship (AGRTPS) and Flinders International Postgraduate Research Scholarship (FIPRS) are two competitive scholarships open to international research applicants. Application deadlines for these scholarships are usually early August.

If interested in putting an application and have good publication record in quality journals and meet the English Language Requirements of Flinders University, please contact me to discuss your proposed research project.

You may check the application process for Higher Degree by Research (HDR) at Flinders University.

Postdoctoral Fellowships Opportunities

I am highly interested to host postdoctoral fellows in my research group to collaborate with our research team and to conduct high-quality and impactful research in design of electric machines. Interested applicants should contact me to discuss their research proposal and after approval can apply for Discovery Early Career Researcher Award (DECRA).
