About This Opportunity
The Research School of Astronomy and Astrophysics (RSAA) offers the Joan Duffield Research Award to up to 3 outstanding students commencing in the PhD program at RSAA. Funding for this Award has been made possible due to an endowment from Miss Joan Doris Duffield, daughter of Professor Walter Geoffrey Duffield, the inaugural Director of the Solar Physics Observatory at Mount Stromlo. Miss Duffield was a treasured member of the Mount Stromlo community and a long-time supporter of science and astronomy. The objective of the Award is to support outstanding domestic students to enable them to pursue a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) program in Astronomy & Astrophysics based in the Research School of Astronomy & Astrophysics. Recipients receive a single lump-sum payment of AU$2,500 upon commencement in the PhD program. Previous recipients may remain eligible for future awards.
