From Professor Robert Ackland:
ACSPRI’s mission is to help foster high-quality teaching and research in the social sciences and to enhance the impact of social science research. To help achieve this mission, ACSPRI is pleased to announce – the ACSPRI Fellowship Program – supporting the next generation of high-quality researchers in the social sciences.
PhD candidates from ACSPRI member institutions are invited to apply now for the 2023-24 ACSPRI Fellowship Program. Valued at $25,000, the fellowship will help PhD students to achieve their career goals, by providing direct financial support and professional development opportunities. Fellowship holders will receive an annual bursary for two years and financial support to participate in ACSPRI courses and events. Applications close on September 30, 2023.

Eligibility: Applicants to the ACSPRI Fellowship Program must be enrolled in a PhD program of an ACSPRI member institution, (in either Australia or New Zealand), and must be confirmed candidates, (or near completing the requirements of confirmation). Applicants from the full spectrum of social science disciplines and cogent fields are welcome to apply.
Value of the Fellowship: $10,000 bursary payment per year for each of 2 years ($20,000 in total), plus a fee waiver for enrolling in up to 2 ACSPRI courses and financial support to attend the ACSPRI Biennial Conference (valued at approximately $5,000).
ACSPRI Chair Professor Robert Ackland, of the ANU, says: “ACSPRI is very pleased to support researchers at the start of their careers. In my opinion, appropriate funding and training play an important role in enhancing research outcomes. For this reason, ACSPRI is willing to ‘give-back’ to the social science community in Australia and New Zealand in the form of the Fellowship Program.”
