Eligibility
- Chief investigator A (first named investigator) must be a fellow or registered trainee of the college. However, if chief investigator A is a registered trainee, one of the other chief investigators must be a fellow of the college.
- Grants are usually awarded for one year, however multi-year funding grants are available for a second year of additional funding, with the second year capped at $A50,000.
- Higher degree scholarships are made within a project grant application.
Scholarship grants are made within the project grant scheme and are awarded to fellows or registered trainees enrolled as senior degree students to support full-time or part-time research in a recognised university or research institute in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Malaysia or Singapore. They are available for one to two years, subject to category of award made and subject to satisfactory reports.
Entitlements
The maximum amount available for a project grant is $A70,000 for year one, or $A120,000 where second year funding has also been approved.
Applicants requesting multi-year funding must attain a higher ranking, determined by the ANZCA Research Committee, to be considered for multi-year funding. If the committee deems a grant to be of fundable quality, but it does not meet the ranking threshold for multi-year grants, the application may be approved for one year of funding only, based on the availability of funding.
The stipend and allowances are similar to those provided by the NHMRC. Half-time research may be negotiated on a pro-rata basis upon application.
Apply
The grant round closes 5pm AEDT 1 April, 2025. Before applying, please read the information on our Apply for an ANZCA research grant page.
