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), 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,

⌦How to apply for research degree scholarships to study in Australia or
abroad
Let's summarise this whole long process on how to apply for scholarships to
study in Australia in particular 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!

-
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.
