Description
International Postgraduate Research Scholarships (IPRS) are available to eligible overseas candidates for higher degrees by research at The University of Western Australia (‘the University’) and provide course tuition fees and standard health cover only for each semester of the course in line with the scholarship tenure and conditions described below.
The requirements, regulations and benefits contained in these conditions of award apply to commencing and continuing students. The conditions are determined by the Department of Innovation, Industry, Science and Research (DIISR) and are subject to change from time to time. If a continuing award holder would be disadvantaged by any regulation in comparison with the relevant condition in the year of commencement, the original condition will apply.
For the purpose of these conditions the Head of School is the person appointed as Head, acting in that capacity or a Graduate Research Coordinator who has been approved by the Board of the Graduate Research School to act on matters pertaining to higher degrees by research.
