2007 Victoria Fellowships

15 February

The Victorian Government annually awards up to six Victoria Fellowships to emerging leaders in engineering, science or technology.

Each Fellow receives a travel grant of up to $18,000 to undertake a short-term overseas study mission to assist in developing a commercial idea, undertaking specialist training or career development.

Study missions offer Victoria Fellows the opportunity to broaden their experience, develop networks and better understand where their activities fit into the local and international scene.

The Fellowship also provides an opportunity for recipients to develop commercial ideas.

What kinds of projects are supported?

Activities that could be supported by a Victoria Fellowship include:

  • progressing start-up initiatives or a commercial idea which would be assisted by work or development within a professional environment not available locally
  • undertaking a short-term investigative activity of business or public benefit
  • undertaking specialised advanced technological courses or training not available in Victoria
  • attending a particular laboratory or industrial site(s) to learn practices which will assist with the rapid advancement of the Fellow's Victorian activities
  • attending an international meeting, in conjunction with other planned activities using test facilities not available locally
