Research scholarships
As a leading research and teaching institution, Monash University attracts students of the highest calibre. In recognition of the important investment that students make in their education, we offer a range of scholarships to reward and enable outstanding academic achievement.
The Engineering faculty and Monash University offer a range of scholarships for domestic and international graduate research students, including tuition fees, stipends and relocation allowances.
Scholarships are awarded based on academic merit with priority being given to students with a qualification equivalent to a Monash H1 or higher.
Applications for our graduate research degrees are accepted all year, but the majority of Monash’s scholarships are awarded in the following four scholarship rounds:

1 | International | 1 September | 31 March |
