SIEF STEM+ Business Fellowship Program
Sponsor: The Science and Industry Endowment Fund (SIEF) 		Closing Date: 01-Jan-2019
The Science and Industry Endowment Fund (SIEF) STEM+ Business Fellowship program provides funding support to enable Australian Small to Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to undertake 2-3 year research projects with early-career researchers from Australian research organisations. The program aims to build connections and collaboration between researchers and SMEs in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. Early career researchers would work full-time on a research project identified and led by the SME, with funding of up to a maximum of $210,000 per annum to support salary and project costs. Researchers need to have no more than 6 years relevant postdoctoral experience and be employed by the University for the duration of the project.

Applications are now open, with further information available on the website. Interested applicants are encouraged to contact the UQR&I Fellowships Team at fellowshipgrants@research.uq.edu.au regarding scheme eligibility and speak with their Research Partnerships Manager (http://www.uq.edu.au/research/research-partnerships/about-rpms) regarding potential industry connections with SMEs.
