CRADLE will be holding a collaborative event on Wednesday 10 April to highlight opportunities to research with us. This will include information about the Fellowship scheme and introduce our current CRADLE Fellowship holders. Join us to find out more!


Objectives

The objectives of the CRADLE Fellowship Scheme are to attract internal applicants to:

  • foster the development of relevant research expertise,
  • enhance CRADLE’s research capacity and performance, and
  • support excellent practice in assessment and digital learning at Deakin.

Fellows are given access to our facilities and researchers, and are financially supported to develop both their individual and faculty’s research profile. CRADLE Fellowships offer funding of $15,000 to support each Fellow’s collaborative research program for research activities, and in some instances, to buy out teaching time. For example, the funding can be utilised for:

  • direct costs associated with research, such as salaries of research assistants,
  • research dissemination at national or international conferences, and
  • professional development, such as methodological training.

Benefits

  • gaining worldwide recognition as being part of an international research centre in assessment in higher education,
  • interacting with eminent researchers from overseas, with opportunities for collective research partnerships, and
  • mentoring and financial support for research.

Apply

Applications will open on Wednesday 3 April and close on Friday 10 May. Subscribe to our blog to stay up to date with the Fellowship scheme.
