Research Training Scheme (RTS)

Candidates who have an RTS place are not required to pay tuition fees.

All commencing higher degree by research places for Australian citizens and permanent residents, and NZ citizens are funded by the Australian Government under the Research Training Scheme (RTS).  RTS places are awarded to commencing students for a maximum period of two years full time equivalent for a masters student, and four years full time equivalent for a doctoral student. Confirmation of availability of a funded place for eligible students will be made at the time of admission. 

There is no stipend attached to a Research Training Scheme place, however, all UWS research candidates are provided with the resources they need to support their project.

It is Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) policy that applicants who have partly completed a research degree, at UWS or elsewhere, may have the previous period of candidature deducted from the maximum time allowed.
