Monash Fellowships, Monash University - Australia

Monash University has established the Monash Fellowships to attract internationally competitive researchers to undertake research of national and international significance (including young researchers from overseas with great future potential) and provide them with the best possible environment to establish a productive laboratory or other research team and to foster collaborations.

The Fellowships will be in the form of a direct appointment following a Monash-conducted competitive process (open to researchers from outside Monash University only).

The Fellowships are tenable only at Monash University and it is expected that most of the time will be spent at the relevant Monash department/centre.

Up to four (4) awards will be made.
