Postdoctoral Conference IAG Travel Grants

Annual Awards for Postdoctoral Scholars

 
Application closing date: Monday, 24th June 2024
 
The Geographical Society of NSW introduced the Postdoctoral Scholar Awards in 2015.  The awards are targeted at early-career researchers, post-PhD submission. The aim of these awards is to support the research program of early career geographers in their efforts to maintain research momentum, post doctorate. There are a maximum of six annual awards available between $500AUD and $1,500AUD for postdoctoral geography scholars.
 
Priority for these awards will be given to geographers who are otherwise ineligible for institutional internal research funding and/or who have no individual recourse to external research funding. You must be a current member of the Society when applying for this Award. 
 
This award is intended to be used for attendance to the IAG conference at which the applicant will present a paper on a topic relating to geography.
