VESKI, supported by the
Office of the Lead Scientist, is calling for applications for the 2015 Inspiring Women
Fellowships. This scheme, funded by the State Government of Victoria, is designed to
support female leaders who are planning for, experiencing, or returning
from a career break.
The inspiring women
fellowships will provide the opportunity to allow these female leaders to
remain competitive in their field; enhancing the current talent pool and
affecting cultural change.
Applications are sought from early to mid-career female
researchers in STEM disciplines within a Victorian academic or research institution who are experiencing or anticipating difficulties juggling their career and family or carer commitments, or have other compounding reasons for requiring the support of a fellowship.
During 2015/16 three fellowships will be made available and successful individuals may receive up to AUD150,000 distributed over a period of three years.
The application guide, application form and referee report form can be found here.
