About Flagship Visiting Fellowships

Flagship Visiting Fellowships are available for distinguished researchers to provide intellectual leadership for a short period of time (generally up to six months).

For overseas based researchers, the Fellowship may be used to fund a living allowance during the term of their Fellowship as well as economy class international air travel and minor operating costs.

Eligible applicants include:

• Individuals employed part-time or full-time at an Australian or overseas higher education instution
• Individuals from other Australian and overseas publicly funded research agencies
• Recently retired individuals may be considered

Prospective applicants should contact the relevant Flagship to discuss their proposals prior to the submission of any applicatoin for funding.
