This successful program, funded
by Harvard Club of Australia
Foundation, is now accepting applications for calendar 2012.
Deadline for applications is 26
September
2011.
Successful applicants will be
notified
by end-December 2011.
Under its theme of
promoting learned exchange, HCA Foundation has awarded twenty-nine
Fellowships
since 2005. They appeal to mid-career and senior Harvard-based science,
medicine and engineering researchers intending collaborative projects
in
Australia, as well as to similar stage Australians seeking to follow up
collaborative projects at Harvard.
The Fellowships are tenable at
eligible Australian institutions.
These include all of the nationÕs universities and most prominent
research
centres. For Harvard-based researchers, we envisage a working visit of
several
months during which we encourage Fellows to interact additionally with
educators and students in their vicinity. For senior Harvard
applicants, we
offer two extra options. One is a
shorter visit where you intend to take a primary
role in workshops, seminars or instructional courses, particularly if
open to
numbers of Australians seeking to further their knowledge in your
specialised
field. The other option is longer studies of, for example, sabbatical
duration.
Australia-based
applicants become eligible when they can demonstrate significant value
in
attending, say, the Harvard laboratory of a former inbound Fellow in
order to
bring advances back to their Australian institutions.
The PDF here ÒPreliminary Call for ApplicationsÓ sets out guidelines for
applicants. It defines who is eligible,
what the Fellowship covers, and what to include in your
straight-forward online
submission.
