Ranking Process

Applications for research scholarships as part of the Annual Scholarship Round at Griffith University are first processed within the Griffith Graduate Research School (GGRS). It is at this point that applications are initially reviewed for eligibility for entry into Griffith research programs.

Following this initial review, applications are then forwarded to the appropriate schools, departments or research centres for academic staff to assess applications for both entry into Griffith research programs, and for consideration for a scholarship. All applications are then assessed by the Dean (Research)of the relevant Group and the Dean, Griffith Graduate Research School, to arrive at an outcome against the selection criteria.

Applications that are recognised as meeting the selection criteria requirements for scholarship consideration are then assessed and ranked in an order of merit, in the proposed host school, department, research centre, and academic group. The order of merit is based on the Higher Degree Research Scholarship Policy and takes into consideration:

  • The level and duration of sustained research experience and evidence of how the research activity undertaken bears upon and enhances
  • The applicant's research capacity, with regard to the proposed research.
  • The compatibility/fit of the proposed research with university/academic group research priorities
