UQ Summer Research Scholarship Program

What is the UQ Summer Research Scholarship Program?

The program offers scholarships to students who are enrolled in research internships over the summer vacation period.

Research Internships offer students the opportunity to work with a researcher in a formal research environment so that they may experience the research process and discover what research is being undertaken in their field of interest at UQ.
