Commercialisation Training Scholarships

The Commercialisation Training Scheme (CTS) aims to provide high quality research commercialisation training to HDR students as a means of equipping them with skills necessary to bring ideas, inventions and innovations to the market.    Successful CTS Scholarship HDR students must enrol in the Graduate Certificate in Research Commercialisation which is offered through the Faculty of Commerce.  The Graduate Certificate should take no more than 6 months full-time (or part-time equivalent) to complete.  Successful students will be permitted to enrol concurrently in the Graduate Certificate and their HDR degree (subject to satisfactory progress).

Successful applicants will receive a stipend of up to $5,000 – non taxable for full-time or pro rata for part-time and can be granted in addition to any award the student may already hold.  Each student will also be funded to attend a UniQuest Research Commercialisation workshop held in Queensland each year.  CTS scholarship holders are exempt from tuition fees normally charged to undertake the Graduate Certificate in Research Commercialisation.

Scholarships will be awarded preferentially to HDR students whose research outcomes are showing potential and who can demonstrate that they have the best prospects of pursuing a career that will utilise the skills, knowledge and experience gained during the CTS training.
