future.

objective.

Up to two grants will be offered per round.

Advice to Applicants
·
Competitive applications in the previous round of this
scheme were those that addressed the primary objective of the scholar’s visit,
which is to build on an existing collaboration, or to develop a new
collaboration.
·
In order to maximise the value to the Faculty of the
visiting scholar’s visit, host departments will be encouraged to arrange
opportunities for the academic to present a lecture or seminar to which all
interested staff and students of the Faculty can be invited. The Faculty
Research Office can arrange for the presentation to be advertised in advance on
the Monash Events site.
Please find
the Guidelines and Application Form attached.
