1. What are the general requirements for Research Degree scholarships in
Australia? And how to apply successfully
⌦General scholarship requirements for Masters research scholarships
The truth is this whole issue is complex and sometimes the requirements
differ per person, per course, and per country of origin. However, there
are some general scholarship requirements that any international student
intending to study abroad must meet, being in Australia, New Zealand,
Canada, USA, Germany etc...
Research Masters degree scholarship requirements are similar to
those of PhD by research except for the fact that with a PhD, you need
publication experience and at least 1 or 2 published papers in a standard
international journal. Generally at least 2 papers for an added advantage
for a PhD. With research Masters, a bachelor's degree with at least
second-class honour-upper(first-class honours is often required), and
significant research components(Theis, any written work) would be an added
advantage.
Below are some of the general requirements you must meet to get a
research masters scholarship to study in Australia and most countries
abroad :
-
Some minimum Working Experience/Professional Experience
-
Have an Outstanding Academic Background/Qualifications from previous
studies
-
Have Some strong Research Skills(Thesis, project management,
methodological and analytical skills)
-
Should prepare a Relevant Research Proposal.
-
Must have an English Language Proficiency Certificate( Those from a
country where English is not a native language)

Your Passion, Determination and Commitment

⌦How to apply for research degree scholarships to study in Australia
or abroad
Let's summarise this whole long process of how to apply for scholarships to
study in Australia into 5 major steps:
-
Step 1- Check scholarship requirements. As a general tip, to
be successful with research degree scholarships, the very first step
is to check the scholarship requirements and see that you meet them
before lodging any application.
-
Step 2- Complete an EOL. If you meet these requirements, you
can then submit an Expression of Interest(EOI) and get in touch with a
prospective supervisor. Most Australia Universities, not all
will ask to submit an EOI for a research degree program.
An Expression of Interest (EOI) is a preliminary application form that
enables the University to determine the student's eligibility. If
your (EOI) is successful, you will need to find a supervisor in your
area of research interest prior to beginning your application.
-
Step 3- Contact potential supervisors. You must get in
touch with a prospective supervisor to discuss your interest and get
his approval. This is another whole process. You might be wondering
what you will be discussing with him?
Universities will generally request proof of approval from a supervisor
before your application can go to the next step. This can be done by
either taking a screenshot of the approval email or in other cases, you
are requested to state the supervisor's name in the relevant place on your
application form. Getting approval is your first key to
success!
Learn more on how to contact potential supervisors when seeking for masters research studentship position.
-
Step 4- Complete your application. If your EOI interest was
successful and you have gotten approval from a supervisor who is ready
to work with you, you will be invited to complete your application. In
this process, you will need to prepare and submit :
⌦ Research Proposal. See here
how to write a captivating research proposal, with samples, tips and examples from Australian Universities. This is
another major key document to your success. I recommend you take your
time on this⌦ Statement of purpose(SOP)⌦ Referee reports.
In most cases, Universities will recommend you nominate two or three referees.
Hope you have been staying in good tense with your previous supervisors in
academic or work⌦ And any other requested document⌦ Indicate interest in a scholarship: In most cases, on the application form, there is an option to indicate
interest in available scholarships for research degree programs. You must tick
the box to indicate the scholarship you are interested in.
-
Step 5-Wait for the outcome. After completing the above
steps, your application and wait for the outcome. You will be advised
on the outcome of your application usually via email.
What is next? If you have been given an Offer(admission), you will be
automatically considered for the scholarship you applied for as the
requirements are the same for both and there is no separate application
for a research degree scholarship and admission.
