All students will benefit from being a part of the graduate network, and an extensive professional development program that includes opportunities to participate in the SmartSat conference series and networking events. SmartSat CRC students will also benefit from being part of an organisation that links research and industry. SmartSat will actively encourage and facilitate students to undertake periods of placement with industry and end-user partners so they have both academic and industry-based research experience.

Scholarships are available for Australian residents. Non-residents will be considered, subject to project specific requirements. Australian citizens may be required for projects with specific industry partners. 

Applicants should have a first-class Honours degree, or equivalent, in a related discipline. 

The scholarships and application processes are advertised on the SmartSat website.
