ECU-UoP Joint PhD Program Expression of Interest

Please note, the 2026 EOI for this scheme has now CLOSED.

Program Overview

The ECU-UoP Joint PhD Scholarship process consists of two stages:

  • Stage 1: Supervisor/Project Scholarship Expression of Interest (EOI)
  • Stage 2: Candidate/Awardee Selection

Expression of Interest (EOI) Process

Prospective Principal Supervisors are required to email completed Expression of Interest (EOI) for this Scheme to grs@ecu.edu.au.

Before submitting an EOI, please ensure you have read the ECU–UoP Joint PhD Scholarship Scheme Expression of Interest Guidelines.

Steps in the EOI Process:

  1. The Supervisor or an ECU staff member email the EOI form to grs@ecu.edu.au.
  2. The EOI is reviewed by the School’s Associate Dean (Research) for endorsement. The proposed Supervisor will be advised whether the project is endorsed and if any supervisor compliance issues must be addressed.
  3. Endorsed projects are forwarded to the University Scholarship Review Committee for ranking and approval. The outcome will be communicated to the Supervisor, along with details of the next steps.

Important Information

  • EOIs may be assessed by reviewers who are not specialists in the proposed research field.
  • Proposals should be written in clear and accessible language suitable for a broad audience.
  • All required information must be included in the application to allow assessment without further clarification.

For any enquiries relating to the project, supervision or outcome: Contact your School Associate Dean (Research).
