The Griffith University International Postgraduate Research Scholarship is available to apply for during the University’s Continuous Scholarship Round. The GUIPRS covers tuition fees for the applicant for up to three years for doctoral candidates and up to two years for research masters candidates. In addition, the scholarship covers Overseas Student Health Cover for the applicant and any dependant/s for the duration of the scholarship.

Research candidates are required to hold a visa for their program length plus an additional eight months to allow for interactive thesis marking. Candidates undertaking a Ph.D. will require 57 months of overseas health coverage.

Holders of Griffith University scholarships will receive cover (if undertaking a Ph.D.) for the first 42 months of their program and will be required to pay the remaining 15 months (and provide evidence of coverage) at the time of accepting their offer.

Since 1975, their teaching and research have been focused on addressing the most important social and environmental issues of their time. Today, that mission is as relevant as ever.

Social and environmental responsibility drives everything they do, from pioneering teaching in modern Asian studies and environmental science to their long-time support for First Peoples, social justice, and sustainable practices.

Consistently ranking in the top 2 percent of universities globally, their degrees are designed with industry in mind, the future in their sight, and social impact at heart.

With more than 55,000 students, their community spans five campuses across South East Queensland plus their Digital campus, complemented by a global alumni network of over 200,000 graduates.

They know the world can, and should, be a better place—for everyone. And in helping thousands of different people create a brighter future for themselves, they’re doing their part to create a brighter future for all.

The GUIPRS is a full fee-paying scholarship and matches the value of the fees charged by the enrolment Element.

The GUIPRS may be held for up to two years for a research master’s program and up to three years for a doctoral program. A six-month extension may be granted to doctoral candidates in certain circumstances.
