All students enrol for their degree through a university and
undertake their research at the Telethon Institute under the
supervision of an Institute researcher. Eligibility and conditions
for completion of the degree are primarily those of the enrolling
universities.
Enrolment through a university department can be accomplished
either by contacting a potential supervisor at the Telethon
Institute or, particularly for honours studies, by contacting a
course supervisor at the university of choice. Most university
departments welcome supervision at research institutes.
For PhD and other postgraduate students, scholarships can be
obtained by applying for the University and Australian Postgraduate Awards or to other
organisations such as the National Health and Medical Research Council.
The applications must be made via a university but Telethon
Institute supervisors can help select the appropriate department
and assist to make the application. Some supervisors can also
arrange PhD and postgraduate stipends or have access to other
scholarships.
Students should contact prospective supervisors or project leaders
for information.
Information about our divisions, their projects and prospective
supervisors can be found under Our Research
