  2. Contact the RMIT Higher Degree by Research Industry Engagement team at hdr.outreach@rmit.edu.au to advise them that you have submitted your DF CRC application.

  3. If your DF CRC scholarship application is successful, submit your formal PhD Expression of Interest to RMIT via
    https://www.rmit.edu.au/research/research-degrees/how-to-apply.

Please note:

  • This scholarship program does not accommodate student-instigated projects. If successful in obtaining a DF CRC scholarship you will be connected with one of the DF CRC members to undertake an industry-based PhD project.

  • The RMIT EoI/application process is independent of the DF CRC scholarship program, and obtaining a DF CRC scholarship does not guarantee you entry into a PhD program with RMIT.
