Before making an application for a research programme at Griffith, you are required to identify an available supervisor at the university. You can do this through the Research Hub. You can see a list of Research centres at the university here.

When contacting supervisors we recommend that you communicate your research interests in a concise but well thought through manner – academic staff will receive a lot of similar requests and are only likely to respond positively to the ones that demonstrate commitment and ability. It is also a good idea to attach a CV (no longer than two pages) and a copy of your academic transcripts.

Once you have located an available supervisor and received a positive response from them you will need to prepare your research proposal. This should be no longer than 500 words and you should use headings based on the following:

• Areas of research (include the Griffith school, department or research centre that will host your programme)
• Clear statement of your research topic
• Brief overview of previous relevant research
• Objectives of the programme of research investigation
• Research methods and plan, including references to key literature sources
• Proposed Griffith principal supervisor/Griffith associate supervisor or any non-Griffith supervisor

Once you have developed the proposal, you are encouraged to submit an application online.

When completing the form, you will be asked if you would like to appoint a representative. You should enter Study Options contact details here.
