Trans-Pacific Fellowships
The Trans-Pacific Fellowships (TPF) is a new initiative between The University of Queensland (UQ) and The University of Washington that funds opportunities for study and research exchanges spanning the Pacific Ocean. The University of Queensland Trans-Pacific Fellowships aim to support high-achieving UQ undergraduates, research higher degree candidates and staff to undertake study and research at the University of Washington. The financial support provided by the Trans-Pacific Fellowships will encourage the development of permanent personal and institutional friendships, as well as the pooling of the universities’ expertise and resources to derive better teaching and research results.
The University of Queensland expects to fund a minimum of four Trans-Pacific Fellowships for 2009. At least one award is anticipated in each of the UQ Fellowship categories:
