Future Crops Centre Scholarship

Award value: $34938 annually

Level of study: Postgraduate

The ARC Training Centre for Future Crops is working directly with industry and the community to train the next generation of research and industry leaders to deliver impactful projects with real-world implications for food security. Students in plant science and communication in science will have opportunities to engage with industry partners and communities on projects to improve the yield and nutritional value of the crops that underpin the energy and protein content of the human diet. Together, the Centre will build future R&D capabilities in the Agrifood sector to drive growth, productivity and competitiveness for the benefit of agriculture and global food security. These scholarships will enable students to pursue a PhD program conducting research that is either a core project within the Centre, or closely aligns with the strategic directions of the Centre, based in the College of Science.
