Introduction
The SAAFE CRC Education & Training Program will build capability and capacity to tackle AMR. As SAAFE PhD projects are designed to develop the next generation of forward-thinking industry leaders who will implement AMR solutions and best practice, the scholarship funds will go to projects that are:
- Aligned to SAAFE's research program themes (Monitoring, Analytics, Solutions, Risk) and principles for developing high quality projects.
- Co-designed and connected with SAAFE stakeholders (industry, government, regulatory, research partners) throughout the life of the PhD.
Priorities for this round
This call for PhD projects aims to recruit the first cohort of SAAFE CRC Scholars. While this is an open call, we are particularly keen to see projects which address the following topics:
-
AMR dynamics relevant to industry risk assessment
-
Methods and tools to support AMR risk assessment and stewardship
-
AMR and AMU stewardship parameters and guidelines
We also support projects that promote early and mid-career researcher development, and gender and cultural diversity. Please keep this in mind when considering potential project team members.
Project partners
Like SAAFE projects, PhD proposals should be driven by industry need. In this round, priority will be given to proposals which have an identified industry partner who has been involved in co-designing the project AND will benefit from this project’s outputs.
If you need assistance identifying or connecting with a prospective project partner for submission in a future round, contact charlotte.ferrier@crcsaafe.com.au to discuss this further.
PhD project selection process and indicative criteria
Project proposals will be reviewed for:
- Project quality (novelty, suitability and feasibility),
- Likely project benefit and impact
- Alignment with SAAFE CRC program objectives and milestones, and partner priorities
PHD PROJECT PROPOSAL CLOSING DATE (Round 2):
5pm ACST, Monday 1 July 2024
