How to Train for a Grants Marathon: Research Success in Australian Grants

Join us for a dynamic session where UTS researchers will share their personal strategies and valuable insights for navigating the marathon of building your track record and securing research funding as an Early Career Researcher. Like any marathon, success in Australian grants requires preparation, determination, and the right support team.

The session will conclude with a live Q&A, giving participants the opportunity to ask questions and gain tailored advice from our experienced panel: A/Prof Ramona Vijeyarasa (Faculty of Law), Dr Jiao Jiao Li (School of Biomedical Engineering, FEIT), and Dr Peter Irga (School of Civil and Environmental Engineering, FEIT).
