University Scholarships
University of South Australia Postgraduate Awards (USAPA) are funded by

These scholarships are based on the areas of research strength across the

considered for a USAPA. The award includes a stipend and exemption from the
payment of tuition fees for a limited time (up to 4 years equivalent to
undertake a Doctorate by Research, or 2 years equivalent to undertake a
Masters by Research).
There is a small number of specialised scholarships available in particular
areas or for particular groups. Go to UniSA's
