Please note changes to the PPA's for 2017.
- As of Round 1, 2017 the PPA
award will be for a maximum of 8 weeks (previously
12 weeks), in line with the examination duration. This change will also
allow MGE to offer additional PPAs in 2017.
- Ten applicants
(previously 6 applicants) from each faculty may be nominated for each PPA
round.
The PPA 2017 Guidelines and Round 1 Nomination Form are now
available on the website.
The PPA scheme is designed to encourage graduate research
students to disseminate their research findings through publication in
professional journals or books. The scheme provides an income equivalent to the
APA rate for eight weeks. It is aimed at supporting students who, having
submitted their thesis, wish to write up some of their research for publication
whilst they await the result of their thesis examination.
Full details (guidelines and application form) are available
on the MGE intranet – http://intranet.monash.edu.au/graduate-education/admissions-scholarships/scholarships/grants/ppa.html
Please note that preference is given to students who submit
their thesis within three‐and‐ a‐half years (42 months, effective
full‐time)
of commencing a doctorate or two years (24 months Effective Full Time) of
commencing a master’s. Where this time limit is exceeded, the supervisor must
make a case within the application as to why this overrun has occurred, even if
by a few days.
