Australia-Harvard Fellowships
connecting Harvard and Australia in research
        
  

This successful program is funded by Harvard Club of Australia Foundation and administered by HCA Philanthropy Pty Ltd.

Under its theme of promoting learned exchange, the Foundation has awarded twenty-nine Fellowships since 2005. They appeal to mid-career and senior Harvard-based science, medicine and engineering researchers intending collaborative projects in Australia, as well as to similar stage Australians seeking to follow up collaborative projects at Harvard.

The Fellowships are tenable at eligible Australian institutions. These include all of the nation’s universities and most prominent research centres. For Harvard-based researchers, we envisage a working visit of several months during which we encourage Fellows to interact additionally with educators and students in their vicinity. For senior Harvard applicants, we offer two extra options. One is a shorter visit where you intend to take a primary role in workshops, seminars or instructional courses, particularly if open to numbers of Australians seeking to further their knowledge in your specialised field. The other option is longer studies of, for example, sabbatical duration.

Australia-based applicants become eligible when they can demonstrate significant value in attending, say, the Harvard laboratory of a former inbound Fellow in order to bring advances back to their Australian institutions.  

The guidelines for applicants defines who is eligible, what the Fellowship covers, and what to include in your straight-forward online submission.
