About This Opportunity
The Chappell and White PhD Scholarship is offered once every three years by the Research School of Earth Sciences at the Australian National University to support high achieving domestic and international PhD students conducting research in the areas of petrology and ore petrology. Funding for this award has been provided by Professor Bruce Chappell and Professor Allan White, two distinguished geologists who made significant contributions to the field. Professor Bruce Chappell's career at ANU spanned more than 30 years and he was elected to Fellowship of the Australian Academy of Science. Professor Allan White was a member of the Geology Department at ANU from 1960 to 1971 and later established the Department of Geology at La Trobe University. The scholarship provides a stipend of $34,000 per annum paid fortnightly for three years, with a possible six-month extension. In addition to the stipend, recipients receive travel and removal allowances for relocation to Canberra, thesis reimbursement, and for international students, dependant child allowance and overseas student health cover. The scholarship also includes paid medical, maternity, and parental leave. Eligible candidates must hold a Bachelor degree with first-class honours or a Master degree with a research component from a recognised university and be enrolled full-time in a Doctor of Philosophy program in Earth Sciences.
