Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowships Scheme – MGSE EOI Now Open

We are pleased to announce the Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowship Scheme is now open.

MGSE has an Expression of Interest (EOI) process for all Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowship applicants. All prospective MGSE Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowship applicants must submit the EOI application by 3pm (AEST) on Tuesday 3 May 2022. The link to the MGSE EOI application is here.

The Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme is one of the University of Melbourne’s researcher development schemes, launched in 2021, initially to support early career researchers during the COVID-19 pandemic. The University has continued the scheme in recognition of the ongoing effects of the pandemic era on the careers and opportunities of early career researchers.

Melbourne Postdoctoral Fellowships are available to University of Melbourne PhD graduates and academic staff currently employed at the University of Melbourne (fixed-term or casual) who may have graduated with a PhD from another university.

Each Fellowship will be awarded starting at Academic Level A6 in the University Salary Band (currently $95,179 plus on-costs and superannuation as per the terms and conditions of employment for University staff set out in the UoM Enterprise Agreement 2018) with an additional single allocation of $25,000 for project costs over the term of the three-year Fellowship.

The EOI will be used to rank potential MGSE applications and only those selected will be permitted to submit a full application.
