The ARC Cultural Research Network is pleased to announce the details
of a bursary scheme to assist postgraduate students and Early Career
Researchers (without access to institutional funding) in their
attendance at the State of the Industry conference at UNSW in November 2009.
The bursary funds will be distributed in the form of return airfares
to enable attendees based in regional NSW and other Australian
states to travel to Sydney.
We want as many 'next generation' scholars who are engaged in
cultural research as possible to participate in this event, and we
hope this funding scheme will encourage postgrads and ECRs from all
over Australia to join this important discussion.
To be as fair as possible, tickets will be distributed to eligible
applicants on a 'first come, first served' basis.
To be in the running to receive one of these plane tickets, please
read the following instructions, and follow them carefully:
Send an email to Alison Huber ((huberal /at/ unimelb.edu.au)) AFTER 9AM on
MONDAY 7 SEPTEMBER 2009.
NB: Early applications will not be considered.
Please title your email 'SOI Bursary Application', and provide the
following information:
1. Name and title for ticket booking (to match photo ID)
2. Institutional affiliation (if applicable)
3. Enrolment / Employment status
4. Email address
5. Contact phone number
6. Airport you wish to fly from/back to
7. Preferred travel dates and times
8. Frequent flyer number (if applicable)
Alison will send a return email indicating your place in the ticket
queue. When we have reached the end of the pot of money, bursaries
will be declared 'sold out'.
In the spirit of making this conference inclusive and
representative, registration is free of charge, and open to all
members of the public and the university community.
