Applications now open: 2016 Hugh Rogers Fellowships

Applications for the Hugh Rogers Fellowships are closing on the 22 July.

The purpose of the Hugh Rogers Fellowships is to encourage and support innovative people and ideas by funding research and projects that expand and enhance Melbourne's and Boston's reputations as centres of knowledge excellence in three areas of research. These are; education, healthcare and medical research, and the arts and culture. Depending on the quality of applications and the availability of funds in each year, one or more Fellowships up to $10,000 may be awarded in these nominated areas of endeavour. Each Hugh Rogers Fellowship is intended to fund a self-contained, and sustainable, research project of a short duration, to be undertaken in an institution in Boston.

The Fellowships will be awarded to practitioners and researchers in the early stages of their careers. Each Fellowship is intended to assist the longer-term development of the Fellow's career by furthering their research or project and by providing them with opportunities to create new professional networks.
