UQ-Technical University of Munich Travel Bursary

UQ is funding a limited number of travel bursaries valued at AU$4000 each to support UQ HDR (Higher Degree by Research) candidates to travel to the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in 2026 for Research Exchange or as part of their Collaborative Supervision Program. Doctoral candidates participating in the research exchange program should stay at TUM from 3 to 12 months. The scholarship is specifically designed to support Doctor of Philosophy students at The University of Queensland who have been approved to undertake a period of research exchange at TUM in 2026, or who are UQ-TUM Collaborative Supervision program students (including IGSSE) travelling to TUM in 2026 under their collaborative supervision arrangements. Candidates applying to undertake a period of research exchange at TUM must have successfully passed their confirmation review (PR1) and not yet submitted their thesis for examination. Applications will be ranked based on academic achievement and potential for scholastic success, as well as the significance and relevance of the proposed international travel to the candidate's Higher Degree by Research candidature and the potential for it to enhance their research. The travel bursary supports a research stay of up to 1 year at the Technical University of Munich.
