Studentship Award
The Science and Innovation Studentship Award (SISA) was introduced in 2004 to provide an opportunity for research students to work on a project with a Western Australian private sector organisation of their choice for a period of 10 weeks.
The Award promotes research interaction between industry and academia, with a focus on issues essential to long-term development and modernization of Western Australian Industry. The Studentship seeks to encourage creativity and innovation in science students/graduates, with students allowed to broaden their professional experience and gain valuable skills and experience in developing and applying their own ideas.
This year up to 20 Studentships will be available, valued at $7,000.00 each.
