SUMMARY:DEADLINE: CSIRO Next Generation Graduates Program Grant Round 2023-24
DESCRIPTION:Businesses and government organisations are invited to partner with universities to apply for grant funding to bring talented students into your team. \n\n\nLeading the charge in upskilling Australia’s digital tech workforce\, the Next Generation Graduates Program (NGGP) will fund up to 500 nationally competitive scholarships to attract and train the next generation of AI and emerging technologies specialists and build technology capability and skills across a range of fields. \nFunded by the Australian Government\, the NGGP will provide scholarships to domestic students and aims to attract candidates from diverse academic backgrounds\, including those with degrees in social sciences\, professional fields\, mathematical disciplines\, computational sciences\, or other areas of study. \nRound 2023-24 will provide up to a total of $15.5 million in student stipends and allowances from 2024-2029 with up to a further $5.5 million expected to be committed by industry partners. \nStructure\nThe Round will be structured with two streams: \n\nGeneral Stream – is set to allocate $7.5 million\nRegional Stream – is set to allocate up to $8 million\nNB: As part of our commitment to a regional focus\, priority will be given to Regional Stream applications that successfully meet the criteria. If funds are not fully allocated\, leftover funds may be redistributed to the General Stream.\n\nPlease review the application guidelines to assess your eligibility for these streams. \nRegional focus\nThe NGGP aims to help students unlock their full potential and shape the future of AI and emerging technologies\, with the understanding that diversity in thought and backgrounds is crucial for innovation. The NGGP have completed two rounds to date\, with 25 consortia programs successfully awarded. Yet\, of these 25\, there is only minimal regional university (as per Section 5 in the application guidelines) involvement. \nThe newly established Regional Stream seeks to: \n\nsupport participation of regional universities and their students in the NGGP\,\nencourage collaboration between industry\, other partner organisations and universities\, including regional universities\,\ncontribute to regional priorities.\n\nApplication guidelines and templates\n\nNext Generation Graduates Program Grant Round 2023-24 Application Guidelines PDF (408 KB)\nNext Generation Graduates Program Grant Round 2023-24 Application Guidelines (plain text version) TXT (42 KB)\nBudget Calculator  XLSX (29 KB)\nUniversity Letter of Support template DOCX (44 KB)\nPartner Organisation Letter of Support template DOCX (47 KB)\nApplication platform template DOCX (70 KB) – this template is only provided to you to assist brainstorming your proposed consortium program with your team of investigators/partners.
