Growing the next generation of clinician-academics is a strategic priority for the Barwon Health and Deakin University (BH/DU) partnership.

We are therefore delighted to announce that the Deakin University Faculty of Health has made up to five PhD scholarships available to support the BH/DU PhD program. These will be awarded to joint supervision teams to enable them to attract strong candidates. 

We are keen to support PhD programs that bring together clinical and academic teams to tackle important research questions for the Australian health system; and committed to supporting allied health, nursing and medical practitioners to develop their research interests and skills. We recognise that flexible models are required to enable people to maintain their clinical training and roles whilst embarking on a PhD. The Principal supervisor would need to be a Deakin staff member or has a joint affiliation with Deakin.

We would like the proposed supervision team to include both Barwon Health and Deakin staff. A PhD program is an excellent way to bring together a multidisciplinary team to tackle an important clinical research question. Expressions of Interest are requested by the 30th of April - more details will be provided soon, and we would be pleased to provide guidance and feedback to people interested in developing a proposal.

​​We look forward to working with you to build research capacity between the two organisations and answer important clinical questions.

Prof Julie Owens, Deputy Vice-Chancellor Research, Deakin University
Prof Rachel Huxley, Executive Dean for the Faculty of Health , Deakin University
Prof Trish Livingston, Associate Dean of Research, Deakin University 
Prof Pete Vuillermin, Director of Research, Barwon Health
