AINSE Grants

Research Awards 2012

AINSE Ltd awards provide funding to support projects undertaken by researchers from member institutions which have an identifiable focus on nuclear materials and nuclear techniques of analysis and/or on the use of the unique national facilities and expertise at the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO).

AINSE Research Awards:

  • cover the costs associated with access to AINSE-supported Facilities (ASFs);
  • contribute to the cost of travel and/or accommodation when the university researcher lives in a city different from that in which the facility is located;
  • may contribute toward the cost of equipment and/or materials which are necessary for, but not precursors for the experiment at ANSTO.

Read the 2012 AINSE Research Awards Guidelines (PDF) before starting your application.

Use the AINSE Researchers’ Guides to identify facilities, expertise and research fields appropriate to your proposal.

Supervisors should apply now under the AINSE Research Awards scheme for access to AINSE-supported facilities likely to be required by their research students (including Honours students) in the first half of 2012.
